1 REVISION ELECTROCHEMISTRY

2 OXIDATION is a loss of electrons An increase in oxidation number REDUCTION is a gain of electrons A decrease in oxidation number CATHODE The electrode where reduction takes place ANODE The electrode where oxidation takes place

3 ELECTROLYTE solution/liquid/dissolved substance that conducts electricity through the movement of ions.

4 TABLE OF STANDARD REDUCTION POTENTIALS

5 STANDARD CONDITIONS

7 GALVANIC CELL a cell in which chemical energy is converted into electrical energy. A galvanic (voltaic) cell has self-sustaining electrode reactions

8 SPONTATEOUS REACTIONS

9 CELL POTENTIALS

10 CELL NOTATION The H 2 |H + half-cell is treated just like any other half-cell.. Cell terminals (electrodes) are written on the outside of the cell notation. Active electrodes reducing agent | oxidised species || oxidising agent | reduced species Inert electrodes (usually Pt or C): Pt | reducing agent | oxidised species || oxidising agent | reduced species | Pt Example: Pt | Cℓ - (aq) |Cℓ 2 (g) || F 2 (g) | F - (aq) | Pt

11 SALT BRIDGE Its function is to maintain ELECTRICAL neutrality
