CHEM1101 - Resources for Week 12
Topics and Learning Outcomes
Electrochemistry
relate the sign of the electrode potential to the direction of spontaneous change combine half cells to produce balanced redox reactions and to calculate cell potentials identify the species which are being oxidzied and those being reduced in a redox reaction write down the cell notation for a Galvanic cell including ones involving inert electrodes use the Nernst equation to calculate the effect of concentration on the cell potential relate the electrode potential and the reaction quotient relate the standard electrode potential, the equilibrium constant and the change in Gibbs free energy
Electrolytic Cells
identify the processes and species formed at the anode and cathode of Galvanic and electrolytic cells identify the direction of electron flow in Galvanic and electrolytic cells identify what can be electroysed and the role of over-potential in the electrolysis of water and in the production of NaOH and Cl2 use Faraday's Laws of Electrolysis to relate the amount of product to the electric current applied
