Chemistry Worksheets Class 12 on Chapter 3 Electrochemistry with Answers - Set 1

Electrochemistry is the study of the generation of electricity from the energy released during spontaneous chemical reactions, as well as the application of electrical energy to cause non-spontaneous chemical reactions transformations. The subject is significant on both counts for both theoretical and practical reasons. A large variety of metals, sodium hydroxide, chlorine and Fluorine and a variety of other chemicals are created by electrochemical techniques.
