🗑
What is isochoric? work?   Constant volume. No work since w=-Pdelta(V) (The piston is still locked). All the deltaE = +q  
🗑
Isothermal? Work in isothermal?   Heat is allowed to pass freely. Piston is no longer insulated. Graph is like P vs V of isobaric except the line decreases gradually because for gas to expand at constant T, the pressure must decrease Area = work done.  
🗑
Adibatic?   No heat is transfered between the system and all energy is transfered as work. Pressure decreases to rapidly that no heat has a chance to transfer (gas cools very fast). Sharp decrease in pressure, and deltaE = -w, since q=0

🗑
Do you multiply standard reduction or ocidation potential by coefficient   Nooooo! It's an intrinsic property.  
🗑
Difference between electrolytic cell and galvanic cell?   Electrolytic uses external voltage source (like battery) to create an electric current, thus forcing a nonspontaneous redox reaction  
🗑
Electron flow in galvanic vs. electrolytic cells   for BOTH, e flow goes from anode to cathode. Total E is negative for electrolytic.  
🗑
Cathode and anode positive or negative galvanic and electrolytic cells   Galvanic, cathode is + and anode is -. Electrolytic is opposite.

Nerst equation   E = E0 - (RT/nF)lnQ  
🗑
