The essentials of galvanic cells are examined next.
The emf of a cell is calculated using the standard reduction potentials based on the hydrogen electrode reference. There is a relationship between a cell's emf, the standard Gibbs free energy, and the equilibrium constant for the cell reaction. The emf of a cell can be calculated using the Nernst equation.
We look at the operation of batteries and fuel cells.
We learn ways to prevent corrosion after studying it.
Finally, we learn about the quantitative aspects of electrolytic processes.
A day without electricity from either the power company or batteries is not something that can be experienced in our society. Interconversion of electrical energy and chemical energy is dealt with in the area of chemistry.
A chemical process that uses electricity to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction is called an eochemical process. The latter type is referred to as electrolysis.
The fundamental principles and applications of galvanic cells are explained in this chapter. The quantitative aspects of electrolysis are also discussed.
In an oxidation- reduction reaction, the energy released by a reaction is converted to electricity or into a nonspontaneous reaction. It is helpful to review some of the basic concepts that will come up again in this chapter, even though redox reactions were discussed in Chapter 4.
The electrons are transferred from one substance to another.
Section 4.4 contains the rules for assigning oxidation numbers. An increase in the element's oxidation number is a sign of the element's loss of electrons. There is a decrease in oxidation number when there is a gain of electrons. The H+ ion is reduced and the Cl- ion is spectator ion in the preceding reaction.
The equations for redox reactions are easy to balance.
In the laboratory, we often see more complex reactions involving sulfate and 2- 3. We can balance any redox equation using the procedure outlined in Section 3.7, but there are some special techniques that give us insight into electron transfer pro cesses. The overall reaction is divided into two half-reactions, one for oxidation and one for reduction. The equations for the two half-reactions are balanced separately and then added together to give a balanced equation.
The Cr2O7 ion is reduced to the Cr3+ ion. We can balance the equation with the following steps.
The unbalanced equation needs to be written for the reaction in ionic form.
The equation should be separated into two half-reactions.
The atoms are balanced.
There are 12 positive charges on the left-hand side and six on the right-hand side.
The electrons on the other side must stop. We need to equalize the number of electrons if the oxidation and reduction half-reactions contain different numbers of electrons.
A final check shows that the equation is balanced andatomically.
For reactions in a basic medium, we go through step 4 as if you're going to use your eBook for additional learning resources.
Student data shows you may struggle with balancing reactions in basic solution.
A balanced ionic equation is needed to represent the oxidation of iodide ion by permanganate ion.
We follow the procedure for balancing equations. The reaction takes place in a basic medium.
Each half-reaction is balanced for the number of atoms and charges.
The oxidation and reduction half-reactions give the overall reaction.
The balanced equation is in an acidic medium.
The equation is balanced in terms of both charges and atoms.
The electrons are transferred from the reducing agent to the oxidizing agent. The transfer of electrons can be accomplished via a metal wire if we separate the oxidizing agent from the reducing agent. As the reaction progresses, it sets up a constant flow of elec trons and thus creates electricity, which can be used to drive an electric motor.
The early versions of the device were constructed by the two men. A zinc bar is immersed in a ZnSO4 solution, while a copper bar is immersed in a CuSO4 solution. The oxidation of Zn to Zn2+ and the reduction of Cu to Cu can be accomplished simultaneously in separate locations with the transfer of electrons between them occurring through an external wire.
Cu is reduced to Zn at the anode.
During the course of the overall redox reaction, electrons flow from the Zn to the Cu elec trode through the wire. Without the salt bridge, the build up of positive charge in the anode compartment and negative charge in the cathode compartment would prevent the cell from operating.
An electric current flows from the anode to the cathode because there is a difference in potential energy between the two. The flow of electric current is similar to the flow of water down a waterfall because there is a different amount of potential energy in each region. The temperature at which the cell is operated, the concentration of the ion and the nature of the electrodes are all factors that affect the cell's voltage.
Student data shows that the ZnSO4 is in solution. We draw a line between understanding cell Zn and Zn2+ and showing the phase boundary. The salt diagrams have double vertical lines. To the left of the double lines is where the anode is written.
The emf of the cell can be seen as the sum of the electrical potentials at the Zn and Cu electrodes.
There is a bubble of hydrogen gas in the acid. There are two functions of the platinum electrode.
It is an electrical conductor to the external circuit.
The SHE can be used to measure the potentials of other types of electrodes.
This is the topic of the cell diagram.
Both cells are operating normally.
A cell with a copper electrode and a SHE can be used to get the standard copper potential.
The standard-state values are what these are.
F- is the weakest reducing agent and Li metal is the strongest. The oxidizing agents on the left side of the half-reactions increase strength from bottom to top and the reducing agents on the right side of the half-reactions increase strength.
The half-cell reactions can be reversed. Depending on the conditions, any electrode can act as either an anode or a cathode. When zinc is used in a cell with copper, the SHE becomes the anode and the H+ is reduced to H2.
The left side of the first half-cell reaction is Cu2+ while the right side of the second half-cell reaction is Zn. As we saw earlier, Zn spontaneously reduces Cu to form Zn and Cu.
Table 18.1 allows us to predict the outcome of redox reactions under standard-state conditions, whether they take place in a galvanic cell, where the reducing agent and oxidizing agent are physically separated from each other, or in a beaker.
Predict what will happen if bromine is added to the solution. All species are in their normal states.
The diagonal rule is used to predict what redox reaction will take place.
The diagonal rule shows that Br2 will oxidize I- but will not oxidize Cl-.
The Na+ ion do not enter into the redox reaction.
It may be difficult to assign the electrodes in the galvanic cell.
The diagonal rule is used to determine which is the anode and which is the cathode after we write the standard reduction potentials of Ag and Mg.
Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy in a galvanic cell.
The total charge is more convenient to be expressed in numbers.
The greatest experimental scientist of the 19th century was Faraday. He became interested in science after reading a book on chemistry while he was an apprenticeship to a bookbinder. The first person to demonstrate the principle governing electrical generators was Faraday. Along with making notable contributions to the fields of electricity and magnetism, Faraday also worked on optical activity and named benzene.
Products and reactants are equally favored.
The equilibrium constant can be calculated if we can determine the standard emf.
Compare the ease of measuring the equilibrium constant of a reaction with that by chemical means.
We've focused on redox reactions in which reactants and products are in their standard states, but standard-state conditions can be difficult to maintain. There is a relationship between the emf of a galvanic cell and the concentration of reactants and products. Next, this equation is derived.
During the operation of a galvanic cell, electrons flow from the anode to the cathode, resulting in product formation and a decrease in reactant concentration. The cell reaches equilibrium.
The student data indicates that you may struggle with cell potentials on the right-hand side if the ratio is less than 1, ln.
The example shows the use of the equation.
The work of Nernst was on the subject of electro lyte solution. The electric piano was invented by him. The winner of the chemistry prize in 1920 was Nernst.
The reaction in example 18.6 would become spontaneously if we could determine the ratio of Co2+ toFe2+.
If gases are involved in the cell reaction, their concentra tions should be expressed in atm.
H is 1.0 atm.
The concentration of H+ should be calculated.
The equation relates standard emf and nonstandard emf.
A galvanic cell whose reaction involves H+ ion can be used to measure H+ or pH. Section 15.3 describes the principle behind the pH meter.
The H+ ion is absorbed by the Ag-- AgCl electrode. A silver wire is immersed in a hydrochloric acid solution.
The potential difference between the two sides of the membrane can be monitored using a reference electrode.
Reduction should take place in the more concentrated compartment and oxidation should take place on the more di lute side.
Concentration cells are usually small and decrease in size as the concentrations in the two compartments approach each other.
The electrical potential of various kinds of cells, including muscle cells and nerve cells, can be found in the Membrane Potential. Nerve impulses and heartbeats arePropagation is responsible for the propagation of nerve impulses and heartbeats When there are different concentrations of the same type of ion in the inside and outside of a cell, a membrane poten tial is established.
Although the operation of a battery is similar in principle to that of the galvanic cells described in Section 18.2, a battery has the advantage of being completely self-contained and requiring no auxiliary components. Several types of batteries are used in widespread use.
There is a container that is in contact with something.
The carbon rod is in the center of the cell.
The dry cell's voltage is about 1.5 V.
The mercury battery is more expensive than the dry cell and is used in medicine and electronic industries. The mercury battery has a zinc anode in contact with a strongly alkaline electrolyte containing zinc oxide and mercury(II) oxide.
The mercury battery provides a more constant voltage than the Leclanche cell because there is no change in electrolyte composition. It has a longer life and a higher ca pacity. The mercury battery is ideal for use in hearing aids, electric watches, and light meters.
Six identical cells are joined together in a series in the lead storage battery. Each cell has a lead anode and a PbO2 packed on a metal plate. The anode and cathode are immersed in a solution of sulfuric acid, which acts as the electrolyte.
The lead storage battery can deliver a lot of current in a short period of time.
The lead storage battery is able to be charged. Recharging the battery means reversing the normal reaction of the battery to the environment.
There are two aspects of the operation of a lead storage battery that are worth mentioning. The degree to which the bat tery has been discharged can be checked by measuring the density of the electrolyte with a hydrometer. The fluid density in a fully charged battery should be equal to or greater than 1.2 g/mL.
The emf of gal vanic cells decreases with temperature. There is a decrease in voltage of 1.5 x 10-4 V for every degree drop in temperature for a lead storage battery. The decrease in voltage is only 6 x 10-3 V, which is an insignificant change. The real cause of a battery's apparent breakdown is an increase in the temperature of the electrolyte.
The battery needs the electrolyte fully conducting to function properly. The resistance of the fluid increases, so the power output of the battery decreases. If a dead battery is warmed to room temperature on a cold day, it will recover its ability to deliver power.
The anode is made of carbonaceous material and has small spaces in it that can hold both Li atoms and Li+ ion. Transition metal oxide such as CoO2 can hold Li+ ion. The nonaqueous electrolyte must be used because of the high reactivity of the metal.
The greatest reducing strength is achieved by the battery that has the most negative standard reduc tion potential.
Only 6.941 g of Li is needed to produce 1 mole of electrons. A battery can be charged hundreds of times. It is suitable for use in cellular telephones, digital cameras, and laptop computers.
Recent progress in the manufacture of electric and hybrid automobiles has created an intense demand for batteries. LfP batteries are used in electric vehicles and power tools. The batteries have many of the advantages of other batteries, but they also have an added advantage of high chemical and thermal stability. LFP batteries can be charged many times and are resistant to fires caused by the ar rays of conventional batteries. Reduced environmental concerns and a greater ability to retain a charge are some of the advantages of LFP batteries. LFP batteries have a somewhat lower energy density than traditional batteries, but that trade off is acceptable in applications that need a more robust battery. The batteries with compounds that improve the conductivity have been "doping" to address the problem.
There are questions about the world supply of this important alkali metal because of the increasing demand. Over the next few years, it is projected that the demand will surpass the supply, with most of the supply coming from Argentina and China. The discovery of a huge lithium deposit in Afghanistan in 2010 may help to address the growing demand.
Fossil fuels are a major source of energy, but conversion of fossil fuel into electrical energy is a highly inefficient process. Even the most efficient power plant can only convert about 40% of the original chemical energy into electricity. The efficiency of power production can be greatly increased by carrying out combustion reactions directly by electrochemical means.
A hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell consists of an electrolyte solution and two inert electrodes.
The oxidation and reduction are carried out separately at the anode and the cathode, but the reaction is the same as the hydrogen combustion reaction. The standard hydrogen electrode has a twofold function.
They serve as electrical conductors and provide the necessary surfaces for the initial decomposition of the molecule into atomic species. Platinum, nickel, and rhodium are good catalysts.
A number of other fuel cells have been developed.
The propane-oxygen fuel cell is included.
Fuel cells don't store chemical energy. The Chemistry in Action essay "The Efficiency of Heat Engines" was written by Kim Shiflett.
Fuel cells can be as efficient as an internal combustion engine. The noise, vibration, heat transfer, thermal pollution, and other problems normally associated with power plants are free of fuel-cell genera tors. Fuel cells aren't in widespread use. The lack of cheap elec trocatalysts that can function efficiently for long periods of time is a major problem. In space vehicles, the most successful application of fuel cells has been.
Oxygen is found at the University of Massachusetts.
The current generated by the fuel cell is small.
They get their generate electricity for cooking, lighting, and powered electri energy by oxidizing the decaying organic matter to produce cal appliances and computers in homes. The devices are not used by the bacteria. This is a good way to clean the environment.
The end product in the redox process is carbon diox iron(III) oxide.
The tests show that the iron oxide reaction can be replaced by the salts. 2CO2 + 2H2O can be used to reduce the salts to the insoluble form.
The blowup shows a scanning electron micrograph. The ion can pass between the compartments.
There are many examples of the corrosive substance around us. There are a number of things that are Rust on iron, tarnish on sil ver, and the green patina formed on copper and brass.
Damage to buildings, bridges, ships, and cars is caused bycorrosion.
Some of the fundamental processes that occur in corrosion are discussed in this section.
The most well-known example of rust is on iron.
Oxygen gas and water must be present. Although the reactions are complex and not fully understood, the main steps are believed to be as follows.
The H+ ion are supplied by the reaction of atmospheric carbon dioxide with water to form H2CO3.
The mechanism of rust formation is shown in Figure 18.14. The electrical circuit is affected by the migration of electrons and ion in salt water. Salts spread on roads to melt ice and snow can cause rust on cars.
It is not limited to iron. Consider aluminum, a metal used to make many useful things. The table shows that aluminum has a more negative standard reduction potential than Fe. We might expect to see airplanes slowly corrode away in rainstorms, and soda cans turn into piles of aluminum.
Air serves to protect the aluminum underneath from further cor rosion. The underlying metal is too porous to be protected from the rust that forms on the iron surface.
In normal atmospheric exposure, copper forms a layer of copper carbonate (CuCO3), a green substance that protects the metal underneath from further cor rosion. There is a layer of silver sulfide in silverware that comes into contact with food.
There are a number of ways to protect metals. Most of the methods are designed to prevent rust formation. The easiest way to coat the metal surface is with paint. Rust will form under the paint layer if the paint is scratched, pitted, or dented. A thin oxide layer is formed when the metal is treated with a strong oxidizer. Adding a solution of sodium chromate to cooling systems will prevent rust formation.
When iron is alloyed with other metals, it oxidizes less. A layer of chromium oxide protects the iron from the elements.
Tin or zinc can be used to cover an iron container.
Tin cans are made by applying a thin layer of tin over iron. As long as the tin layer remains intact, Rust formation is pre vented. After the surface has been scratched, it begins to rust.
The zinc is still attacked even if there is a scratch. In this case, the zinc metal is the anode and the iron is the cathode.
An iron nail can rust in water.
The three solid phases of dental amalgam correspond to Ag2Hg, Ag3Sn, and Sn8Hg. The reduction po tentials for the solid phases are Hg2+ 2 / Ag2Hg3, 0.85 V, and Gold inlay Ag3Sn, -0.05 V.
The filling short-circuits the cell, causing a weak current to flow between the electrodes. The dental filling current causes an unpleasant sensation to the nerve of the tooth.
A dental filling can be touched by less metal. A dental filling is brought about by contact with a gold inlay.
The most rosion phase will eventually result in another visit to the dentist for a likely to corrode, because of the long cor values for the three phases. Replacement filling will be released with the release of Sn(II) ion.
Section 18.7 of the chemistry in action essay shows that dental filling discomfort can be caused by an electrochemical phenomenon.
The processes that take place in galvanic cells have the same principles. There are three examples of electrolysis that are based on those principles. We will look at the quantitative aspects.
In its molten state, sodium chloride can be used to make metal and chlorine. The cations and anions are in molten NaCl. There is a pair of batteries in the electrolytic cell. The battery is an "electron pump" that drives electrons to the cathode, where reduction occurs, and withdraws electrons from the anode, where oxidation occurs.
This process is a major source of chlorine gas.
In practice, a higher voltage is due to inefficiencies in the process, and will be discussed soon.
This cell has a pair of electrodes made of a nonreactive metal immersed in water.
There aren't enough ion in the water to carry an electric current. There are enough ion to conduct electricity. Gas bubbles start to appear at the electrodes.
The figure shows the reactions.
This is the most complicated of the three examples because the solution contains several species that could be reduced.
2O should be preferentially oxidized.
The O2 formation has a high over voltage. Under normal operating conditions, the gas is formed at the anode.
Under standard-state conditions, reaction (3) is preferred. They are equally probable at a pH of 7.
Cations are likely to struggle with predicting products be reduced at the cathode and anions are likely to be oxidation at the anode, and in aque of electrolysis, according to our analysis of electrolysis. Water may be reduced or oxidized if you access your eBook for additional Learning Resources. The outcome depends on the topic.
Oxygen gas and hydrogen gas can be described in terms of the reactions at the electrodes.
The Na+ ion is not reduced at the anode.
The conclusions are drawn from the electrolysis of water in the presence of sulfuric acid and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution Both the oxidation and reduction reactions involve water.
A solution of Mg(NO3)2 is being lyzed.
There are many applications of lysis in industry. Chapter 21 will discuss some of these applications.
The treatment of electrolysis was quantitative. He observed that the mass of product formed (or reactant consumed) at an electrode is proportional to the amount of electricity transferred at the electrode and the molar mass of the substance in question. When one Na+ ion accepts an electron from the other, the cathode reaction tells us that one Na atom is produced. To reduce 1 mole of Na+ ion, we must ply Avogadro's number of electrons. The anode reaction shows that oxidation of two Cl- ion yields one chlorine molecule. The trans fer of 2 moles of electrons from the Cl- ion to the anode is caused by the formation of 1 mole of Cl2.
In an experiment, we measure the current that passes through a cell in a given period of time.
The mole ratio is used to calculate the quantities of half-cell reaction produced in electrolysis. Let's look at molten CaCl2 in a cell. A current of 0.452 A can be passed through the cell.
The first step in solving this type of problem is to determine which species will be reduced at the anode and which species will be left at the cathode. The choice is to use the ideal gas equation or the molar mass.
A current of 1.26 A is passed through a cell containing a solution of sulfuric acid.
The ideal gas equation can be used to calculate the volume of O2 in liters. There is a procedure that can be used for H2.
The procedure for hydrogen is the same.

He put a glass of water in the kitchen faucet and then made an electrical device that had probes and a lightbulb. It looked like a standard tester. He put the probes into the water and the bulb went off. The salesman poured some water from a jar into a glass. The bulb did not light when he put the probes into the water.
Tom recalled an experiment he did in high school, in which the tap water contained minerals.
CHEM MATTERS, February, 1988, p. 13, was adapted from "Tainted Water."
The tap water has the electrodes in it. Right: Before the start of electrolysis. 15 minutes after the start of electrolysis.
He told Tom to read the section on heart conditions caused by mineral deposits.
The tap water may look clear, but we know it has dissolved minerals. Most people don't know that it contains substances that are harmful to our health. The salesman did another demonstration. Theprecipitator was a device that had two large electrodes attached to a black box. He said to look at what's in the tap water. The tap water was clean. The outlet was plugged into by the salesman. Within a few seconds, there were bubbles in the air. The water was yellow. The water was covered in a brownish scum in a few minutes. The water was filled with a black-brown substance after 15 minutes. Nothing happened when he repeated the experiment with distilled water.
Tom was taken aback.
The precipitator brought out the heavy metals and other undesirable substances. There is a solution to this problem. The only safe water to drink is distilled water, which is what my company makes.
Tom decided to wait. $600 is a lot to pay for a device that he only saw briefly. He consulted Sarah, the chemistry teacher at the local high school, before making the investment. The salesman left the pre cipitator with Tom so that he could do further testing after he promised to return in a few days.

In the laboratory, we often see more complex reactions involving sulfate and 2- 3. We can balance any redox equation using the procedure outlined in Section 3.7, but there are some special techniques that give us insight into electron transfer pro cesses. The overall reaction is divided into two half-reactions, one for oxidation and one for reduction. The equations for the two half-reactions are balanced separately and then added together to give a balanced equation.
The Cr2O7 ion is reduced to the Cr3+ ion. We can balance the equation with the following steps.
The unbalanced equation needs to be written for the reaction in ionic form.
The equation should be separated into two half-reactions.
The atoms are balanced.
There are 12 positive charges on the left-hand side and six on the right-hand side.
The electrons on the other side must stop. We need to equalize the number of electrons if the oxidation and reduction half-reactions contain different numbers of electrons.
A final check shows that the equation is balanced andatomically.
For reactions in a basic medium, we go through step 4 as if you're going to use your eBook for additional learning resources.
Student data shows you may struggle with balancing reactions in basic solution.
A balanced ionic equation is needed to represent the oxidation of iodide ion by permanganate ion.
We follow the procedure for balancing equations. The reaction takes place in a basic medium.
Each half-reaction is balanced for the number of atoms and charges.
The oxidation and reduction half-reactions give the overall reaction.
The balanced equation is in an acidic medium.
The equation is balanced in terms of both charges and atoms.
The electrons are transferred from the reducing agent to the oxidizing agent. The transfer of electrons can be accomplished via a metal wire if we separate the oxidizing agent from the reducing agent. As the reaction progresses, it sets up a constant flow of elec trons and thus creates electricity, which can be used to drive an electric motor.
The early versions of the device were constructed by the two men. A zinc bar is immersed in a ZnSO4 solution, while a copper bar is immersed in a CuSO4 solution. The oxidation of Zn to Zn2+ and the reduction of Cu to Cu can be accomplished simultaneously in separate locations with the transfer of electrons between them occurring through an external wire.
Cu is reduced to Zn at the anode.
During the course of the overall redox reaction, electrons flow from the Zn to the Cu elec trode through the wire. Without the salt bridge, the build up of positive charge in the anode compartment and negative charge in the cathode compartment would prevent the cell from operating.
An electric current flows from the anode to the cathode because there is a difference in potential energy between the two. The flow of electric current is similar to the flow of water down a waterfall because there is a different amount of potential energy in each region. The temperature at which the cell is operated, the concentration of the ion and the nature of the electrodes are all factors that affect the cell's voltage.
Student data shows that the ZnSO4 is in solution. We draw a line between understanding cell Zn and Zn2+ and showing the phase boundary. The salt diagrams have double vertical lines. To the left of the double lines is where the anode is written.
The emf of the cell can be seen as the sum of the electrical potentials at the Zn and Cu electrodes.
There is a bubble of hydrogen gas in the acid. There are two functions of the platinum electrode.
It is an electrical conductor to the external circuit.
The SHE can be used to measure the potentials of other types of electrodes.
This is the topic of the cell diagram.
Both cells are operating normally.
A cell with a copper electrode and a SHE can be used to get the standard copper potential.
The standard-state values are what these are.
F- is the weakest reducing agent and Li metal is the strongest. The oxidizing agents on the left side of the half-reactions increase strength from bottom to top and the reducing agents on the right side of the half-reactions increase strength.
The half-cell reactions can be reversed. Depending on the conditions, any electrode can act as either an anode or a cathode. When zinc is used in a cell with copper, the SHE becomes the anode and the H+ is reduced to H2.
The left side of the first half-cell reaction is Cu2+ while the right side of the second half-cell reaction is Zn. As we saw earlier, Zn spontaneously reduces Cu to form Zn and Cu.
Table 18.1 allows us to predict the outcome of redox reactions under standard-state conditions, whether they take place in a galvanic cell, where the reducing agent and oxidizing agent are physically separated from each other, or in a beaker.
Predict what will happen if bromine is added to the solution. All species are in their normal states.
The diagonal rule is used to predict what redox reaction will take place.
The diagonal rule shows that Br2 will oxidize I- but will not oxidize Cl-.
The Na+ ion do not enter into the redox reaction.
It may be difficult to assign the electrodes in the galvanic cell.
The diagonal rule is used to determine which is the anode and which is the cathode after we write the standard reduction potentials of Ag and Mg.
Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy in a galvanic cell.
The total charge is more convenient to be expressed in numbers.
The greatest experimental scientist of the 19th century was Faraday. He became interested in science after reading a book on chemistry while he was an apprenticeship to a bookbinder. The first person to demonstrate the principle governing electrical generators was Faraday. Along with making notable contributions to the fields of electricity and magnetism, Faraday also worked on optical activity and named benzene.
Products and reactants are equally favored.
The equilibrium constant can be calculated if we can determine the standard emf.
Compare the ease of measuring the equilibrium constant of a reaction with that by chemical means.
We've focused on redox reactions in which reactants and products are in their standard states, but standard-state conditions can be difficult to maintain. There is a relationship between the emf of a galvanic cell and the concentration of reactants and products. Next, this equation is derived.
During the operation of a galvanic cell, electrons flow from the anode to the cathode, resulting in product formation and a decrease in reactant concentration. The cell reaches equilibrium.
The student data indicates that you may struggle with cell potentials on the right-hand side if the ratio is less than 1, ln.
The example shows the use of the equation.
The work of Nernst was on the subject of electro lyte solution. The electric piano was invented by him. The winner of the chemistry prize in 1920 was Nernst.
The reaction in example 18.6 would become spontaneously if we could determine the ratio of Co2+ toFe2+.
If gases are involved in the cell reaction, their concentra tions should be expressed in atm.
H is 1.0 atm.
The concentration of H+ should be calculated.
The equation relates standard emf and nonstandard emf.
A galvanic cell whose reaction involves H+ ion can be used to measure H+ or pH. Section 15.3 describes the principle behind the pH meter.
The H+ ion is absorbed by the Ag-- AgCl electrode. A silver wire is immersed in a hydrochloric acid solution.
The potential difference between the two sides of the membrane can be monitored using a reference electrode.
Reduction should take place in the more concentrated compartment and oxidation should take place on the more di lute side.
Concentration cells are usually small and decrease in size as the concentrations in the two compartments approach each other.
The electrical potential of various kinds of cells, including muscle cells and nerve cells, can be found in the Membrane Potential. Nerve impulses and heartbeats arePropagation is responsible for the propagation of nerve impulses and heartbeats When there are different concentrations of the same type of ion in the inside and outside of a cell, a membrane poten tial is established.
Although the operation of a battery is similar in principle to that of the galvanic cells described in Section 18.2, a battery has the advantage of being completely self-contained and requiring no auxiliary components. Several types of batteries are used in widespread use.
There is a container that is in contact with something.
The carbon rod is in the center of the cell.
The dry cell's voltage is about 1.5 V.
The mercury battery is more expensive than the dry cell and is used in medicine and electronic industries. The mercury battery has a zinc anode in contact with a strongly alkaline electrolyte containing zinc oxide and mercury(II) oxide.
The mercury battery provides a more constant voltage than the Leclanche cell because there is no change in electrolyte composition. It has a longer life and a higher ca pacity. The mercury battery is ideal for use in hearing aids, electric watches, and light meters.
Six identical cells are joined together in a series in the lead storage battery. Each cell has a lead anode and a PbO2 packed on a metal plate. The anode and cathode are immersed in a solution of sulfuric acid, which acts as the electrolyte.
The lead storage battery can deliver a lot of current in a short period of time.
The lead storage battery is able to be charged. Recharging the battery means reversing the normal reaction of the battery to the environment.
There are two aspects of the operation of a lead storage battery that are worth mentioning. The degree to which the bat tery has been discharged can be checked by measuring the density of the electrolyte with a hydrometer. The fluid density in a fully charged battery should be equal to or greater than 1.2 g/mL.
The emf of gal vanic cells decreases with temperature. There is a decrease in voltage of 1.5 x 10-4 V for every degree drop in temperature for a lead storage battery. The decrease in voltage is only 6 x 10-3 V, which is an insignificant change. The real cause of a battery's apparent breakdown is an increase in the temperature of the electrolyte.
The battery needs the electrolyte fully conducting to function properly. The resistance of the fluid increases, so the power output of the battery decreases. If a dead battery is warmed to room temperature on a cold day, it will recover its ability to deliver power.
The anode is made of carbonaceous material and has small spaces in it that can hold both Li atoms and Li+ ion. Transition metal oxide such as CoO2 can hold Li+ ion. The nonaqueous electrolyte must be used because of the high reactivity of the metal.
The greatest reducing strength is achieved by the battery that has the most negative standard reduc tion potential.
Only 6.941 g of Li is needed to produce 1 mole of electrons. A battery can be charged hundreds of times. It is suitable for use in cellular telephones, digital cameras, and laptop computers.
Recent progress in the manufacture of electric and hybrid automobiles has created an intense demand for batteries. LfP batteries are used in electric vehicles and power tools. The batteries have many of the advantages of other batteries, but they also have an added advantage of high chemical and thermal stability. LFP batteries can be charged many times and are resistant to fires caused by the ar rays of conventional batteries. Reduced environmental concerns and a greater ability to retain a charge are some of the advantages of LFP batteries. LFP batteries have a somewhat lower energy density than traditional batteries, but that trade off is acceptable in applications that need a more robust battery. The batteries with compounds that improve the conductivity have been "doping" to address the problem.
There are questions about the world supply of this important alkali metal because of the increasing demand. Over the next few years, it is projected that the demand will surpass the supply, with most of the supply coming from Argentina and China. The discovery of a huge lithium deposit in Afghanistan in 2010 may help to address the growing demand.
Fossil fuels are a major source of energy, but conversion of fossil fuel into electrical energy is a highly inefficient process. Even the most efficient power plant can only convert about 40% of the original chemical energy into electricity. The efficiency of power production can be greatly increased by carrying out combustion reactions directly by electrochemical means.
A hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell consists of an electrolyte solution and two inert electrodes.
The oxidation and reduction are carried out separately at the anode and the cathode, but the reaction is the same as the hydrogen combustion reaction. The standard hydrogen electrode has a twofold function.
They serve as electrical conductors and provide the necessary surfaces for the initial decomposition of the molecule into atomic species. Platinum, nickel, and rhodium are good catalysts.
A number of other fuel cells have been developed.
The propane-oxygen fuel cell is included.
Fuel cells don't store chemical energy. The Chemistry in Action essay "The Efficiency of Heat Engines" was written by Kim Shiflett.
Fuel cells can be as efficient as an internal combustion engine. The noise, vibration, heat transfer, thermal pollution, and other problems normally associated with power plants are free of fuel-cell genera tors. Fuel cells aren't in widespread use. The lack of cheap elec trocatalysts that can function efficiently for long periods of time is a major problem. In space vehicles, the most successful application of fuel cells has been.
Oxygen is found at the University of Massachusetts.
The current generated by the fuel cell is small.
They get their generate electricity for cooking, lighting, and powered electri energy by oxidizing the decaying organic matter to produce cal appliances and computers in homes. The devices are not used by the bacteria. This is a good way to clean the environment.
The end product in the redox process is carbon diox iron(III) oxide.
The tests show that the iron oxide reaction can be replaced by the salts. 2CO2 + 2H2O can be used to reduce the salts to the insoluble form.
The blowup shows a scanning electron micrograph. The ion can pass between the compartments.
There are many examples of the corrosive substance around us. There are a number of things that are Rust on iron, tarnish on sil ver, and the green patina formed on copper and brass.
Damage to buildings, bridges, ships, and cars is caused bycorrosion.
Some of the fundamental processes that occur in corrosion are discussed in this section.
The most well-known example of rust is on iron.
Oxygen gas and water must be present. Although the reactions are complex and not fully understood, the main steps are believed to be as follows.
The H+ ion are supplied by the reaction of atmospheric carbon dioxide with water to form H2CO3.
The mechanism of rust formation is shown in Figure 18.14. The electrical circuit is affected by the migration of electrons and ion in salt water. Salts spread on roads to melt ice and snow can cause rust on cars.
It is not limited to iron. Consider aluminum, a metal used to make many useful things. The table shows that aluminum has a more negative standard reduction potential than Fe. We might expect to see airplanes slowly corrode away in rainstorms, and soda cans turn into piles of aluminum.
Air serves to protect the aluminum underneath from further cor rosion. The underlying metal is too porous to be protected from the rust that forms on the iron surface.
In normal atmospheric exposure, copper forms a layer of copper carbonate (CuCO3), a green substance that protects the metal underneath from further cor rosion. There is a layer of silver sulfide in silverware that comes into contact with food.
There are a number of ways to protect metals. Most of the methods are designed to prevent rust formation. The easiest way to coat the metal surface is with paint. Rust will form under the paint layer if the paint is scratched, pitted, or dented. A thin oxide layer is formed when the metal is treated with a strong oxidizer. Adding a solution of sodium chromate to cooling systems will prevent rust formation.
When iron is alloyed with other metals, it oxidizes less. A layer of chromium oxide protects the iron from the elements.
Tin or zinc can be used to cover an iron container.
Tin cans are made by applying a thin layer of tin over iron. As long as the tin layer remains intact, Rust formation is pre vented. After the surface has been scratched, it begins to rust.
The zinc is still attacked even if there is a scratch. In this case, the zinc metal is the anode and the iron is the cathode.
An iron nail can rust in water.
The three solid phases of dental amalgam correspond to Ag2Hg, Ag3Sn, and Sn8Hg. The reduction po tentials for the solid phases are Hg2+ 2 / Ag2Hg3, 0.85 V, and Gold inlay Ag3Sn, -0.05 V.
The filling short-circuits the cell, causing a weak current to flow between the electrodes. The dental filling current causes an unpleasant sensation to the nerve of the tooth.
A dental filling can be touched by less metal. A dental filling is brought about by contact with a gold inlay.
The most rosion phase will eventually result in another visit to the dentist for a likely to corrode, because of the long cor values for the three phases. Replacement filling will be released with the release of Sn(II) ion.
Section 18.7 of the chemistry in action essay shows that dental filling discomfort can be caused by an electrochemical phenomenon.
The processes that take place in galvanic cells have the same principles. There are three examples of electrolysis that are based on those principles. We will look at the quantitative aspects.
In its molten state, sodium chloride can be used to make metal and chlorine. The cations and anions are in molten NaCl. There is a pair of batteries in the electrolytic cell. The battery is an "electron pump" that drives electrons to the cathode, where reduction occurs, and withdraws electrons from the anode, where oxidation occurs.
This process is a major source of chlorine gas.
In practice, a higher voltage is due to inefficiencies in the process, and will be discussed soon.
This cell has a pair of electrodes made of a nonreactive metal immersed in water.
There aren't enough ion in the water to carry an electric current. There are enough ion to conduct electricity. Gas bubbles start to appear at the electrodes.
The figure shows the reactions.
This is the most complicated of the three examples because the solution contains several species that could be reduced.
2O should be preferentially oxidized.
The O2 formation has a high over voltage. Under normal operating conditions, the gas is formed at the anode.
Under standard-state conditions, reaction (3) is preferred. They are equally probable at a pH of 7.
Cations are likely to struggle with predicting products be reduced at the cathode and anions are likely to be oxidation at the anode, and in aque of electrolysis, according to our analysis of electrolysis. Water may be reduced or oxidized if you access your eBook for additional Learning Resources. The outcome depends on the topic.
Oxygen gas and hydrogen gas can be described in terms of the reactions at the electrodes.
The Na+ ion is not reduced at the anode.
The conclusions are drawn from the electrolysis of water in the presence of sulfuric acid and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution of water and a solution Both the oxidation and reduction reactions involve water.
A solution of Mg(NO3)2 is being lyzed.
There are many applications of lysis in industry. Chapter 21 will discuss some of these applications.
The treatment of electrolysis was quantitative. He observed that the mass of product formed (or reactant consumed) at an electrode is proportional to the amount of electricity transferred at the electrode and the molar mass of the substance in question. When one Na+ ion accepts an electron from the other, the cathode reaction tells us that one Na atom is produced. To reduce 1 mole of Na+ ion, we must ply Avogadro's number of electrons. The anode reaction shows that oxidation of two Cl- ion yields one chlorine molecule. The trans fer of 2 moles of electrons from the Cl- ion to the anode is caused by the formation of 1 mole of Cl2.
In an experiment, we measure the current that passes through a cell in a given period of time.
The mole ratio is used to calculate the quantities of half-cell reaction produced in electrolysis. Let's look at molten CaCl2 in a cell. A current of 0.452 A can be passed through the cell.
The first step in solving this type of problem is to determine which species will be reduced at the anode and which species will be left at the cathode. The choice is to use the ideal gas equation or the molar mass.
A current of 1.26 A is passed through a cell containing a solution of sulfuric acid.
The ideal gas equation can be used to calculate the volume of O2 in liters. There is a procedure that can be used for H2.
The procedure for hydrogen is the same.

He put a glass of water in the kitchen faucet and then made an electrical device that had probes and a lightbulb. It looked like a standard tester. He put the probes into the water and the bulb went off. The salesman poured some water from a jar into a glass. The bulb did not light when he put the probes into the water.
Tom recalled an experiment he did in high school, in which the tap water contained minerals.
CHEM MATTERS, February, 1988, p. 13, was adapted from "Tainted Water."
The tap water has the electrodes in it. Right: Before the start of electrolysis. 15 minutes after the start of electrolysis.
He told Tom to read the section on heart conditions caused by mineral deposits.
The tap water may look clear, but we know it has dissolved minerals. Most people don't know that it contains substances that are harmful to our health. The salesman did another demonstration. Theprecipitator was a device that had two large electrodes attached to a black box. He said to look at what's in the tap water. The tap water was clean. The outlet was plugged into by the salesman. Within a few seconds, there were bubbles in the air. The water was yellow. The water was covered in a brownish scum in a few minutes. The water was filled with a black-brown substance after 15 minutes. Nothing happened when he repeated the experiment with distilled water.
Tom was taken aback.
The precipitator brought out the heavy metals and other undesirable substances. There is a solution to this problem. The only safe water to drink is distilled water, which is what my company makes.
Tom decided to wait. $600 is a lot to pay for a device that he only saw briefly. He consulted Sarah, the chemistry teacher at the local high school, before making the investment. The salesman left the pre cipitator with Tom so that he could do further testing after he promised to return in a few days.
