•If Zn(s) and Cu2+(aq) is in the same solution, then the electron is a transferred directly between the Zn and Cu.
No useful work is obtained. However if the reactants areseparated and the electrons shuttle through an external path...

Terminology
• Galvanic cells.– Produce electricity as a result of spontaneous
reactions.
• Electrolytic cells.– Non-spontaneous chemical change driven by
electricity.

Standard Electrode Potentials
• Cell voltages, the potential differences between electrodes, are among the most precise scientific measurements.
• The potential of an individual electrode is difficult to establish.
• Arbitrary zero is chosen.The Standard Hydrogen Electrode (SHE)

Standard Electrode Potential, E°
• E° defined by international agreement.• The tendency for a reduction process to occur at
an electrode.– All ionic species present at a = 1 (approximately 1 M).– All gases are at 1 bar (approximately 1 atm).– Where no metallic substance is indicated, the potential is
established on an inert metallic electrode (ex. Pt).

ΔEcell, ΔG, and Keq
• Cells do electrical work.– Moving electric charge.
• Faraday constant, F = 96,488 C mol-1 = q´NA= 1.6022´10-19 C ´ 6.022045´1023 mol-1
= charge of one mole of electrons.

ΔG = -nFΔEΔG° = -nFΔE°
-
Spontaneous Change• ΔG < 0 for spontaneous change.• Therefore ΔEcell > 0 because ΔGcell = -nFΔEcell• ΔEcell > 0– Reaction proceeds spontaneously as written.
• ΔEcell = 0– Reaction is at equilibrium.
• ΔEcell < 0– Reaction proceeds in the reverse direction
spontaneously.

The Behavior or Metals Toward AcidsM(s) D M2+(aq) + 2 e- E° = -E°M2+/M
2 H+(aq) + 2 e- D H2(g) E°H+/H2 = 0 V
2 H+(aq) + M(s) D H2(g) + M2+(aq)
ΔE°cell = E°H+/H2 - E°M2+/M = -E°M2+/M
When E°M2+/M < 0, E°cell > 0. Therefore ΔG° < 0.

Batteries: Producing Electricity Through Chemical Reactions
• Primary Cells (or batteries).– Cell reaction is not reversible.
• Secondary Cells.– Cell reaction can be reversed by passing
electricity through the cell (charging).• Flow Batteries and Fuel Cells.–Materials pass through the battery which
converts chemical energy into electric energy.
