ELECTROCHEMISTRY Principles, Methods, and Applications

Electrochemistry has undergone significant transformations in the last few decades. It is not now the province of academics interested only in measuring thermodynamic properties of solutions or of industrialists using electrolysis or manufacturing batteries, with a huge gulf between them. It has become clear that these two, apparently distinct subjects, and others, have a common ground and they have grown towards each other, particularly as a result of research into the rates of electrochemical processes. Such an evolution is due to a number of factors, but principally the possibility of carrying out reproducible, dynamic experiments under an ever-increasing variety of conditions with reliable and sensitive instrumentation. This has enabled many studies of a fundamental and applied nature to be carried out.

A Distinguishing Feature of the Balance 2∙f(O)−f(H) in Electrolytic Systems: The Reference to Titrimetric Methods of Analysis

Advances in Titration Techniques

The balance 2•f(O)�f(H) provides a general criterion distinguishing between electrolytic redox and non-redox systems of any degree of complexity, in aqueous, non-aqueous and mixed-solvent media. When referred to redox systems, it is an equation linearly independent on charge (ChB) and elemental/core balances f(Y g ) for elements/cores Y g 6 ¼ H and O, whereas for non-redox systems, 2•f(O)�f(H) is linearly dependent on these balances. The balance 2•f(O)�f(H) formulated for redox systems is the primary form (pr-GEB) of the generalized electron balance (GEB) as the fundamental equation needed for resolution of these systems. Formulation of GEB for redox systems needs no prior knowledge of oxidation numbers for all elements of the system. Any prior knowledge of oxidation numbers for all elements in components forming a redox system and in the species of the system thus formed is not necessary within the Approach II to GEB. Oxidants and reductants are not indicated. Stoichiometry and equivalent mass are redundant concepts only. The GEB, together with charge balance and concentration balances for elements 6 ¼ H and O, and the complete set of independent equations for equilibrium constants form an algorithm, resolvable with use of an iterative computer program. All attainable physicochemical knowledge can be included in the algorithm. Some variations involved with tests of possible reaction paths for metastable systems can also be made. The effects of incomplete physicochemical knowledge on the system can be also tested. One of the main purposes of this chapter is to provide the GEB formulation needed for resolution of redox systems and familiarize it to a wider community of chemists.

Advanced electrochemistry, Interfaces, thermodynamics, and electrochemical techniques

This course presents the fundamentals of the electrode-solution interface, theory of the electrode potential and potentiometry, kinetics of mass and electron transfer, and the electroanalytical techniques: chronoamperometry and chronocoulometry, chronopotentiometry, linear sweep voltammetry, rotating disk electrode. Although these topics are already presented in several books1-8 this information is often dispersed in different books or reviews/articles. The purpose of this course is to give unified theory of these topics.

Free energy: For a reversible cell, the standard free energy (G) of the cell reaction, can be equated to the standard emf E o , it is defined as the amount of internal energy of a thermodynamic system that is available to perform work.

Voltammetric Study and Thermodynamic Parameters of [Zn_L-Amino Acidate_Vitamin-PP] Complexes vis-à-vis Kinetics of Electrode Reaction

Portugaliae Electrochimica Acta, 2009

Voltammetric reduction of Zn (II) using L-lysine, L-ornithine, L-threonine, L-serine, Lphenylglycine, L-phenylalanine, L-glutamic acid, L-aspartic acid and vitamin-PP (nicotinamide, niacinamide) at pH = 7.30 ± 0.01, and µ = 1.0 M NaClO 4 was reported at 25 and 35 ºC. The nature of current voltage curves was quasireversible and diffusion controlled. Zn (II) formed 1:1:1, 1:1:2 and 1:2:1 complexes with these drugs as confirmed by Schaap and McMaster method. The sequence of stability constant of complexes L-lysine < L-ornithine < L-threonine < L-serine < L-phenylglycine < Lphenylalanine < L-glutamic acid < L-aspartic acid can be explained on the basis of size, basicity and steric hindrance of ligands. The thermodynamic parameters such as enthalpy (∆H), free energy (∆G) and entropy change (∆S) have also been reported. The kinetic parameters viz. transfer coefficient (α), degree of irreversibility (λ), diffusion coefficient (D) and standard rate constant (k) were calculated. The values of 'α' confirmed the symmetric nature of 'activated complex' between oxidants and reductants response to applied potential between dropping mercury electrode and solution interface.
