Investigating in the effect of ion concentration in electrolytes on the potential difference in a voltaic cell Introduction When two electrodes made of different metals are connected together in a voltaic cell‚ the chemical energy present is converted into electrical energy and an electromotive force is generated. This force‚ called the electrode potential‚ is normally measured under standard conditions‚ which is 298K‚ 1 mol dm-3 solution for the electrolyte. However when one measures the electrode

Galvanic Corrosion in the Statue of Liberty Introduction: The Statue of liberty built by Gustav Eiffel and Frederic Bartholdi in 1886 was made of materials that consisted of a wrought iron framework with an outer cladding of copper attached by saddles of copper. It was pretty much anticipated that galvanic corrosion would occur so both of the metals were separated by an insulation known as “asbestos and shellac” insulation (Shellac is a natural resin that was widely used in the Victorian

Investigatory Project I. Problems and Setting A. Introduction Batteries‚ years ago‚ have taken the world by a storm and have since than became a necessity in one’s household. Sadly‚ even though they are tremendously useful‚ batteries have drawbacks‚ such as semi- affordable costs‚ limited shelf life and pollution. I had an idea on how to make an alternative to this that would not only work like the real thing but would also be healthy to our environment and light in my pockets

Experiment 9/5 Voltaic cells AIM How the change the concentration of the electrolyte CuSo4 (solution of ions) affect the voltage of the electrochemical cell BACKGROUND An electrochemical cell is also called a voltaic cell‚ which derives electrical energy from redox reaction taking place within the cell. It consists of two different metals that are connected by a salt bridge. Eletrons always flow from anode to cathode‚ where anode is negative (reduction) and cathode is positive (oxidation)
