ChemistryDescribe Electro-motive Force or EMF Normally the potential difference (voltage) measured across the electrodes is less than the maximum possible voltage of the cell. This is because the actual flow…
ChemistryDescribe on Potential Difference in Electric Potential Potential difference is the difference in electric potential (also referred to as electrical pressure) between two points. This difference in electrical potential can be measured…
ChemistryElectro-chemical Cell Notation It is easier to have a shorthand way of writing out particular electrochemical cells. A cell consisting of the zinc-zinc ion half-cell and the copper-copper…
ChemistryElectro-chemical Effect on Electrodes It is important to Know that the zinc electrode gradually gets smaller, as it reacts to form zinc ions in solution. Similarly, the copper electrodes…
ChemistryApplications of Electro Chemistry The applications of Electro-Chemistry and related reactions range from the lead-acid batteries in cars to torch batteries as seen below. Electro-chemical Cells An electro- chemical…
