Electrochemical Cell
A spontaneous chemical process is one which can take place on its own, and in such a process, the Gibbs free energy of a system decreases. In electrochemistry, spontaneous reaction (redox reaction) results in the conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy. The reverse process is also possible where a non-spontaneous chemical reaction occurs by supplying electricity.…

What Is Electrochemistry?
Electrochemistry is the subdiscipline of Chemistry that deals with the study of the relationship between electrical energy and chemical changes. Chemical reactions that involve the input or generation of electric currents are called electrochemical reactions. Such reactions are broadly classified into two categories: Download Complete Chapter Notes of Electrochemistry Electricity can be produced when electrons move…

Frequently Asked Questions – FAQs
Q1 What is meant by a chemical reaction? A Chemical Reaction is a process that occurs when two or more molecules collide with the right orientation and sufficient force to form a new product. In this process breaking and forming bonds between atoms takes place. Compounds that interact to produce new compounds are called reactants…

Types of Chemical Reactions
The basis for different types of reactions is the product formed, the changes that occur, the reactants involved and so on. Different types of reactions are 1. Combustion Reaction A combustion reaction is a reaction with a combustible material with an oxidizer to give an oxidized product. An oxidizer is a chemical a fuel requires…

Chemical Equations
Due to the vast amounts of chemical reactions happening around us, a nomenclature was developed to simplify how we express a chemical reaction in the form of a chemical equation. A chemical equation is nothing but a mathematical statement which symbolizes the product formation from reactants while stating certain condition for which how the reaction…

What is a Chemical Reaction?
A chemical reaction is in which the bonds are broken within reactant molecules, and new bonds are formed within product molecules in order to form a new substance. Chemical reactions are all around us, from the metabolism of food in our body to how the light we get from the sun is the result of…
