Determination of an Electrochemical Series In electrochemistry‚ a voltaic cell is a specially prepared system in which an oxidation-reduction reaction occurs spontaneously. This spontaneous reaction produces an easily measured electrical potential which has a positive value. Voltaic cells have a variety of uses and you commonly refer to them as a “battery”. Half-cells are normally produced by placing a piece of metal into a solution containing a cation of the metal (e.g.‚ Cu metal in a solution

Grace H. Kim Dec. 15‚ 2011 Abstract Two experiments were conducted to figure out the value of the formation constant of tetraamminecopper(II)‚ Kf‚ with different methods and which experimental method produces more accurate result. One was electrochemistry using a Daniel cell and the other one was spectrometry by estimating concentration of complex solution using a calibration curve. The formation constant of cupric ammine complex Cu(NH3)42+‚ Kf‚ came out with 1.93x10^15 using electrochemical cell

ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY –II UNIT-I Electrochemistry Principles Redox reactions Redox stands for reduction-oxidation‚ and are electrochemical processes involving electron transfer to or from a molecule or ion changing its oxidation state. This reaction can occur through the application of an external voltage or through the release of chemical energy. Oxidation and reduction Oxidation and reduction describe the change of oxidation state that takes place in the atoms‚ ions

UNIT 5 – ELECTROCHEMISTRY Chapter 9 – Electric Cells 9.1 – Oxidation and Reduction * The term reduction came to be associated with producing metals from their compounds. * Ex. Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) 2Fe(s) + 3CO2 * Another substance‚ called a reducing agent causes or promotes the reduction of a metal compound to an elemental metal. In this example‚ it is CO. * Corrosion‚ including the rusting of metals‚ is now understood

SYNTHESIS AND CHEMISTRY OF K2S2O8 ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ a sample of K2S2O8 was prepared by the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of H2SO4 and K2SO4. The peroxodisulfate anion‚ S2O82-‚ was also observed for its ability to serve as a counterion for precipitation by preparing a copper (II) complex by reacting hydrated copper (II) sulfate with ammonium peroxodisulfate in the presence of pyridine. This same ability‚ coupled with its strong oxidizing ability allowed for stabilization of
