Electrochemical Cell

• LEO the Lion goes GER
  • Explains that the species that Loses Electrons is Oxidized and species that Gain Electrons is Reduced
• AND is a FAT CAT
  • Explains that in a Galvanic (also called Voltaic cell) electron Flow from the Anode To the CAThode

• [Bosemann Video on Electrochemistry - Overview and Discussion on Electrochemical Cell]
• [Crash Course Chemistry Video on Electrochemistry} *Try to make an Voltaic cell using this interactive webpage, [http://group.chem.iastate.edu/Greenbowe/sections/projectfolder/flashfiles/electroChem/volticCell.html Online Electrochemical Cell Flash Animation]
  • Will need to have a Standard Reduction Potential Table available

• [Vernier Lab Directions for Voltaic Cell]

• [Activity Series Lab Directions]
  • Prelab: determine the half cell reactions for all the potential reactions and prove by E_cell that they do or do not occur.

• Electrochemical Cell (will use Vernier version)

• Standard Reduction Potential table
  • [Standard Reduction Potential Table given in AP Chemistry Exam]
  • [Larger Standard Reduction Potential Table], also can be found [Zumdahl Standard Reduction Potential Table]
