Physical Chemistry
Physical chemistry is the branch of chemistry devoted to the study of the behaviour of matter at an atomic or molecular level. It also involves the study of the properties of substances at different scales, from the macroscopic scale, which includes particles that are visible to the naked eye, to the subatomic scale involving extremely small subatomic…

Meaning of Chemistry
Chemistry is the study of the substances of which matter is composed. Chemistry is heavily experimental because you can only study reductions if you totally mix substances together. Luckily, you don’t need to risk your health and safety to understand chemistry better because brave scientists already did. There are over a hundred elements that make…

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Explain the function of a galvanic cell. Answer: A galvanic cell is an electrochemical cell used to supply electrical current by making the transfer of electrons through a redox reaction. During redox reactions, the galvanic cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy by transferring energy between the electrons. 2. How does an electrolytic cell…

Faraday’s Law of Electrolysis
The relationship between the quantity of electric charge passed through an electrolyte, and the amount of substance deposited at the electrodes was given by Faraday in 1834, in the form of the law of electrolysis. Faraday’s First Law When an electric current is passed through an electrolyte, the amount of substance deposited is proportional to…

Types of Electrochemical Cell
Electrochemical cells are of two types: galvanic cells and electrolytic cells Galvanic Cell The galvanic cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy, i.e., electricity can be obtained with the help of a redox reaction. The oxidation and reduction take place in two separate compartments. Each compartment consists of an electrolyte solution and a metallic conductor,…
