Which direction does the electron go in a battery?
anode to cathode
What is Eº?
Standard reduction potential
What happens in high and low Eº?
high: greater tendency for reduction
low: greater tendency for oxidation
What is standard electromotive force?
Difference in potential between two half cells
emf/Eºcell
What does emf equal?
Eºred+Eºoxid
Equation of Emf and Gibbs Free energy
G=-nFECell
Effect of conecntraon on EMF
Nernst equation
Ecell=Eºcell-(RT/nF)(ln(reaction quotient))
HOw can emf be measeured?
By voltmeter
Realtionshp between EMF and the Equalibrium
G=-RTlnKeq
r=gas constant
nFEcell=RTlnKeq
What is mass defect?
Difference bw them protons and neurtons
What is fusion?
small nuclei combine to into large
What is fission?
Large nucleus splint into small nuclei
rarely spoontaeous
What are chain reations in reference to fissions?
neutrons cause them by splitting and they cause others neutrons to split causeing a chain reaction
What is Baryon number conservation?
the total number of neutons plus protons remains the same, even if neutrons converted to protons
Name some strong acids
HBr. HCl, HNO3, H2SO4, HClO4
What is Ka = to in acid/base equations?
Ka=Products/reactants
