E° cell
E° Red - E° ox.
Nernst Equation
Describes the dependence of cell potential on concentration. ΔG = -nFE = -nFE° + RT ln(Q); E = E° - (RT/nF)ln(Q)
Electrolytic Cell
Uses electrical energy to produce a chemical change.
Equilibrium Constant (K)
Related to the standard cell potential by: ln(K) = (E°(nF))/(RT)
Concentration Cell
A cell where E°cell = 0V, but Ecell ≠ 0V due to differing concentrations of the same species in the half-cells.
Standard Reduction Potential (E°)
The measure of the tendency for a chemical species to be reduced. Higher values indicate a greater tendency to be reduced.
ΔG°
Standard free energy change, related to E° by: ΔG° = -nFE°
Electrolysis
The process of using electrical energy to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction.
