CHEM 1A Lecture Notes - Lecture 31: Alkaline Battery, Galvanic Cell, Energizer Bunny
Document Summary
Galvanic cells ofer an alternaive means of carrying out redox reacions by transmiing electrons through the external part of an electrochemical cell circuit. This can be compared with the rather low theoreical conversion eiciency encountered in heat engines! These rather simple ideas underline past and current development of numerous types of bateries that ind an increasingly wide range of applicaions from making our laptops and cell phones portable to powering our cars. Explain what it means to charge and discharge a batery. The following quesions are intended to help you learn more from this lecture before you begin to study: can you draw all the essenial components of the following galvanic cell: Take cu/cu answer this quesion. for a galvanic cell and get a value in kj/mol, what is the. The per mole is per mole of reacion. Chem 1a, uc berkeley, fall 2014: why does the cu/cu.
