Electrochemistry - 12

        Help!  

Term
Definition
Redox Reactions   One chemical species gains electrons while another species loses electrons  
🗑
Reduced   Gains electrons  
🗑
Oxidized   Loses electrons  
🗑
Half-equation Method   Splitting reaction up so that electrons appear explicitly  
🗑
Disproportionation   Different atoms of the same chemical element are oxidized and reduced in the course of a single reaction  
🗑
Electrochemical Cell   Oxidation and reduction half-reactions are carried out at physically separated electrodes  
🗑
Anode   Electrons released by oxidation  
🗑
Cathode   Electrons take up by reduction  
🗑
Salt-bridge   Small passage between anode and cathode  
🗑
Galvanic (voltaic) Cell   Electric current produced by a cell can be used to do work  
🗑
Electrolytic Cell   External souce forces a current through the cell and non-spontaneous reactions are caused to occur  
🗑
Faraday Constant   Gives the charge per mole of electrons  
🗑
Electrical Work   Equal to the change in Gibbs energy of the redox reaction and to the product of the total charge passing through the external circuit and the cell voltage  
🗑
Standard Cell Voltage   Voltage developed by an electrochemical cell in which all reactants and products are in thermodynamic standard states  
🗑
Half-Cell Reduction Potentials   Expresses the intrinsic tendency of a reduction half-reaction to occur when both the reactant and product are in standard states  
🗑
Nernst Equation   The effect of changes of concentrations or pressures on cell voltages  
🗑
pH Meter   An application of the Nernst Equation  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
