Balance Redox Rxns: • Fe(OH)3 + [Cr(OH)4]-1 • Fe(OH)2 + CrO4-2 • in base
Metallic Conduction • The flow of electrons through a metal
Ionic Conduction • The movement of ions (electrolytes) through a solution • Electrolytic Conduct.
Electrode • The surface or point in which oxidation or reduction takes place
Anode • The electrode where oxidation takes place • An Ox (-)
Cathode • The electrode where reduction takes place • Red Cat (+)
Voltaic or Galvanic Cell • Electrochemical Cell in which:
a spontaneous oxidation-reduction reaction produces electrical energy
Half-Cell • A cell where only oxidation or only reduction takes place
An electrochemical cell must have two half-cells connected by a salt bridge
A half-cell will not work by itself • Both half-cells are required
Salt Bridge • ) Allows electrical contact between the two half-cells
Determining the Redox Rxn & Voltage of an Electrochemical Cell
