Questions and Answers
Explain the concept of electrochemistry and its relevance in class 12 chemistry curriculum.
Electrochemistry is the study of chemical processes that cause electrons to move. It is relevant in class 12 chemistry as it helps in understanding redox reactions, electrolysis, and electrochemical cells.
Discuss the role of electrochemistry in industrial processes and its impact on society.
Electrochemistry plays a crucial role in industrial processes such as metal extraction, electroplating, and battery technology, which significantly impact various sectors of society.
Compare and contrast galvanic cells and electrolytic cells, providing examples of each.
Galvanic cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy (e.g., a standard alkaline battery), while electrolytic cells use electrical energy to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction (e.g., electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen). Both cells involve redox reactions but operate in opposite directions.
