61 Terms

1

what is an electrochemical cell

2 metals which are dipped into a salt solution of their own ions. they are connected by a wire anda salt bridge, electrons flow from the metal with a more negative electrode potential to the other more positive electrode potential, generating electricity

New cards
2

what is a salt bridge

connects the 2 solutions in an electrochemical cell, allowing the ions to move through it, completing the circuit and balancing out the charges

New cards
3

how to make a salt bridge

roll filter paper and dip into KNO3

New cards
4

how to draw cell diagram

single line for change of state double line for salt bridge e.g. Zn(s) / Zn(aq) // Cu2+(aq) / Cu(s)

New cards
5

define SHE

Pt electrode at 298K in 1moldm-3 dilute sulphuric acid, with H2 gas at 1atm

New cards
6

role of SHE

given potential 0 vaults so all other metals EMF is compared against this

New cards
7

how to calculate EMF

more positive (rhs) - more negative (lhs)

New cards
8

SHEs half cell

Pt(s) / 2Cl-(aq), Cl2 (g) //

New cards
9

how can you tell if a reaction is feasible?

if it has a positive EMF

New cards
10

why does d-block have variable oxidastion states?

they can form different oxidation states as the energies of the 4s and 3d orbitals are very similar, so the energy required to remove any of these electrons is similar

New cards
11

equation for gibbs free energy

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

New cards
12

whihc method of feasibility (gibbs or electrochemical) is better

electrochemical is better as it allows for liquids, Gibbs must be in their standard states

New cards
13

oxidation states of Cr

+3, +6

New cards
14

oxidation states of Mn

+2, +4, +7

New cards
15

oxidation states of Fe

+2, +3

New cards
16

oxidation states of Co

+2

New cards
17

oxidation states of Cu

+1, +2

New cards
18

tetrahedral complex ions

New cards
19

octahedral complex ions

New cards
20

which is reducing agent in electrochemical cell?

more negative EMF

New cards
21

which is oxidising agent in electrochemical cell?

more positive EMF

New cards
22

reaction of chlorine with Iron (III) ions

Cl2 + 2e- --> 2Cl- Fe2+ --> Fe3+ + e- so, Cl2 + 2Fe2+ --> 2Cl- + 2Fe3+

New cards
23

reduction of dichromate (VI) to Chromium (III)

Fe2+ --> Fe3+ + e- Cr2O72- + 14 H+ + 6e- --> 2Cr3+ + 7H2O so, 6Fe2+ + Cr2O72- + 14H+ --> 6Fe3+ + 2Cr3+ + 7H2O

New cards
24

reduction of Manganate (VII) to Manganese (II)

H2O2 --> O2 + 2e- + 2H+ MnO4- + 5e- + 8H+ --> Mn2+ + 4H2O so, 5H2O2 + 2MnO4- + 6H+ --> 5O2 + 2Mn2+ + 8H2O

New cards
25

oxidation of thiosulfate to tetrathionate

2S2O32- --> S4O62- + 2e- I2 + 2e- --> 2I- so, 2S2O32- + I2 --> S4O62- + 2I-

New cards
26

what indicator can be used for the oxidation of thiosulfate to tetrathionate

starch

New cards
27
