Galvanic Cell |
Converts the chemical energy released during redox reaction into electrical energy E.g. Daniell cell Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) β Zn2+(aq) + Cu(s) |
Cell Electromotive Force (emf) |
The potential difference between the two electrodes of a galvanic cell, i.e. of the cathode and anode. Cathode – reduction (right) Anode – oxidation (left) Ecell = Eright β Eleft |
Nernst Equation |
For the electrode reaction: Mn+(aq) + ne– β M(s) E(Mn+/M) = Eβ(Mn+/M) β RT/nF ln 1/[Mn+] |
Equilibrium Constant from Nernst Equation |
Eβcell = 2.303RT/nF log Kc R is gas constant (8.314 JK-1 mol-1 ) F is Faraday constant (96487 C mol-1) Kc is equilibrium constant |
Gibbs Energy of the Reaction for an Electrochemical Cell |
βrG = β nFE(cell) E(cell) – emf of the cell nF – the amount of charge passed βrG – Gibbs energy of the reaction |
Faradayβs Laws of Electrolysis |
First Law: The amount of chemical change produced by the current is proportional to the quantity of electricity passed through the electrolyte |
Faradayβs Laws of Electrolysis |
Second Law: The amounts of chemical changes produced by the same quantity of electricity in different substances are proportional to their chemical equivalent weights |
Primary Batteries |
It cannot be reused. E.g. Dry cell or Leclanche cell Anode: Zn(s) β Zn2+ + 2eβ Cathode: MnO + NH4+ + eβ β MnO(OH) + NH3 |
Mercury Cell |
Primary battery Anode: zinc β mercury amalgam Cathode: a paste of HgO and carbon |
Secondary Batteries |
It can be used again by recharging. E.g. Lead storage battery Anode: lead Cathode: PbO2 Electrolyte: 38% sulphuric acid |
Nickel-cadmium Cell |
Secondary cell Rechargeable Reaction during discharge: Cd(s) + 2Ni(OH)3(s) β CdO(s) + 2Ni(OH)2(s) + H2O(l ) |
