Learning Intentions

• We will learn what electrochemistry is based on and how it works.

• We will learn the two types of electrochemistry, integral parts of each and how they differ.

• We will learn how to make predictions about galvanic or electrolytic reactions based on half-cell reactions and potentials an/or Faraday's laws.

• We will learn how to analyze data regarding galvanic or electrolytic cells to identify properties of the underlying redox reactions.

Closing Task:

You can compare galvanic and electrolytic cells and solve problems using electrochemistry equations.

Content Standards being covered:

Electrochemistry show the interconversion between chemical and electrical energy in galvanic and electrolytic cells.
