Electrochemical cells
galvanic cell – spontaneous chemical reaction produces an electric current Electrolytic cell – electric current drives a nonspontaneous reaction Redox reactions involve a transfer of electrons. Zn(s) + CuCl2(aq) g ZnCl2(aq) + Cu(s) Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) g Zn2+(aq) + Cu(s)
5
Galvanic vs Electrolytic
6
Electrolysis Process that involves forcing a current through a cell to produce a chemical change for which the cell potential is negative. Electrolytic cells Electron flow is reversed from galvanic Anode and cathode are reversed from galvanic
7
Electroplating How much chemical change occurs with the flow of a given current for a specified time? Current is measured in amperes (A). 1 A = 1 C/s

Another Question For You
What mass of Cu is plated out when a current of 10.0 A is passed for 30.0 min through a solution containing Cu2+? Cu2+ + 2e- Cu 30.0 min (60 s / 1 min) = 1800 s 1800 s (10.0 C/ 1 s) = 18,000 C 18,000 C (1 mol e- / 96,485 C) = mol e- 0.187mol e- (1mol Cu / 2mol e-) = 0.094mol Cu 0.094 mol Cu ( g /1 mol Cu) = 5.94 g Cu
