| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the branch of chemistry that deals with electricity-related applications of oxidation-reduction reactions | electrochemistry |
| a conductor used to establish electrical contact with a nonmetallic part of a circuit, such as an electrolyte | electrode |
| a single electrode immersed in a solution of its ions | half-cell |
| the electrode where oxidation occurs | anode |
| the electrode where reduction occurs | cathode |
| uses spontaneous oxidation-reduction reactions to convert chemical energy into electrical energy | voltaic cell |
| tendency for the half-reaction of an electrode to occur as a reduction half-reaction in an electrochemical cell | reduction potential |
| the difference in potential between an electrode and its solution | electrode potential |
| the potential of a half-cell under standard conditions measured relative to the standard hydrogen electrode | standard electrode potential |
| cell in which electrical energy is required to produce a redox reaction and bring about a chemical change in an electrochemical cell | electrolytic cell |
| an electrolytic process in which a metal ion is reduced and a solid metal is deposited on a surface | electroplating |
| the process of passing a current through a cell for which the cell potential is negative and causing an oxidation-reduction reaction to occur | electrolysis |
