Electrochemistry Notes for Chemistry 1 (TAMU CHEM120)
Notes taken on the topic of Electrochemistry as taught by Dr. Williamson in CHEM 120 at TAMU. These Notes describe single displacement reactions and go well into depth on oxidation numbers and how to calculate them. It then furthers this idea by providing information on how to balance REDOX Equations stoichiometrically. The notes then move on to describing voltaic cells and the electrochemical cells and electrodes within. These cells are used to calculate cell potential using REDOX reaction rules. These equations and many examples are provided for helpful learning. They then talk about the spontaneity of these REDOX reactions and how batteries take this concept one step farther.
