Electrochemical Cell and Ionic Solutions Quiz

Galvanic cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy through spontaneous redox reactions, while electrolytic cells use electrical energy to drive non-spontaneous redox reactions.

The Nernst equation is used to calculate the electromotive force (emf) of a galvanic cell at any concentration of reactants and products.

Resistivity (ρ) is the measure of a material's ability to resist the flow of electric current, conductivity (κ) is the measure of a material's ability to conduct electric current, and molar conductivity (L m) is the conductivity of an electrolyte solution divided by the molar concentration of the electrolyte.

<p>Λ°m represents the molar conductivity at zero concentration or infinite dilution, providing a standard value for comparison of electrolytes.</p> Signup and view all the answers
