Use of Nernst Equation

Science > Chemistry > Electrochemistry > Use of Nernst Equation In this article, we shall study the use of the Nernst equation to find e.m.f. of cell and electrodes. Convention Followed While Calculation of Cell Potential (e.m.f.): In the symbolic representation of the cell, the right-hand side electrode is the cathode (positive electrode) and the […]

Concept of Electrode Potential: Nernst Theory

Science > Chemistry > Electrochemistry > Nernst Theory In this article, we shall study the Nernst theory of electrode potential, Nernst equation, and its use. Single Electrode or Half cell or Electrode Couple: A single electrode or half cell or electrode couple is produced when a metal is dipped in the solution of its own […]
