Electrochemistry Flashcards
A conducting part fo an electrochemical cell (includes indicator or reference types)
Electrode
A voltammetric technique based on current/voltage curves produced during electrolysis of a solution.
polarography
A special purpose electrode that is selectively permeable to a single ionic species.
Ion- selective electrode
An electrochemical device which converts chemical energy into electrical energy or vice versa
electrochemical cell
current (in amperes) is measured as it flows through the working electrode in an electrochemical cell
amperometry
properties that depends only on the number of particles in solution, not on teh nature fo particles
colligative properties
the difference between calculated and measured osmolality
osmolal gap
the measurement of the potential difference between two electrodes at equilibrium and with no current allowed to flow
potentiometry
the amount of electricity (in coulombs) produced after all fo the substance is reacted is quantitated
coulometry
