Electrochemistry

Calculate cell potential with variable concentrations using the Nernst equation to understand electrochemical behavior and reaction dynamics.

Calculation with the Nernst equation under non-standard conditions reveals cell potentials and reaction equilibria beyond standard states.

Calculate Gibbs free energy (ΔG) from cell potential using ΔG = -nFE, linking electrochemical energy to reaction spontaneity.

Calculate reaction spontaneity using ΔG = -nFE, linking electron transfer, Faraday’s constant, and cell potential to predict electrochemical reaction feasibility.
