Document Summary

Chem112 lecture 33 effects on free energy and electrochemistry. When rg is negative, k > 1 and it product favored. As the value of rg becomes more negative, the k increases. Free energy is how much energy is available in the system to do work on its surroundings. From the equation g = h t s. When entropy is favored (+ s) and enthalpy is disfavored (+ h) When entropy is disfavored (- s) and enthalpy is favored (- h) Oxidation-reduction reactions are also known as redox reactions. When one species gets oxidized and one species gets reduced by the transfer of electrons. Real life electrochemistry and redox reactions: batteries are based on electrochemistry, glucose sensors are based on electrochemistry, aluminum metal is produced from its ore (al2o3) using electrochemistry. You can use oilrig or leo the lion says ger. Oilrig = oxidation is loss, reduction is gain.
