Chemistry Worksheets Class 12 on Chapter 3 Electrochemistry with Answers - Set 4

Electrochemistry is concerned with chemical reactions that generate electricity as well as the changes caused by the passage of electrical current through matter. Because the reactions involve electron transfer, they are classified as oxidation-reduction (or redox) reactions. All electrochemical systems involve electron transfer in a reacting system. In many systems, the reactions take place in a region known as the cell, where electrons are transferred at electrodes.
