AQA 1.11 Electrode Potentials and Electrochemical Cells REVISION
IMPORTANT CORRECTION - The fuel cell electrodes are back to front. The negative electrode should be on the left and the positive one on the right. Electrons flow from the NEGATIVE electrode to the POSITIVE electrode. Sorry for any confusion!

For anyone who would like a more simplifed version of the cell notation then this is how I do it. So think "ROOR" like Katie perry's song and think R O O R - reduced, oxidised, oxidised , reduced, rather than thinking about how close the ZN2+ is to the salt bridge think about which thing is being reduced or oxidised.

At 22:00 you mention that reduction is the loss of electrons; is it not gain? And also you mention that a reducing agent gains electrons but will it lose them?

Hi he must have made a mistake, reduction is gain of electrons and a reducing agent loses electron, basically gives electrons to the other species causing reduction (gain of electron)

Hi, I think that was a minor mistake; reduction is the gain of electrons and reducing agents themselves are oxidised.

do we have to know and memorise the compounds that make up the electrode in the batteries?
How does an organic flow battery work? For instance when quinone gets oxidized to a hydroquinone, both quinone and hydroquinone are neutral so how does an organic battery hold a charge?
Great video understood it so much better
I am confused, I thought the most negative value is the reducing agent so how is magnesium the oxidizing agent at 33:51
at 22:02 you said "reduction is lose of electrons and reducing agent gains electrons ," isn't that other way around? reduction is gain of electrons and reducing agent loses electron , is this what you meant ?

a reducing agent reduces something else by getting oxidised. this means a refusing agent does gain electrons, as it itself gets oxidised as it reduces something else. a substance that gets reduced loses electrons. if we were talking about oxidising agents, they oxidised something else and themselves get reduced. i hope that makes like a slight bit of sense😭 good luck tommorow if ur doing it
Question: As the zinc electrode loses its electrons to the voltmeter, does this cause the solution to become Zn2+, or is the solution Zn2+ prior to the Zn electrode losing its electrons and thus increasing the concentration of Zn2+ ions?
In the fuel cell how does the water from 8 get to the oxygen at 4 to make the oh- ions because the diagram doesnt show how this happens.Or is the water from somewher else?
I am having a bit of confusion with the NO PRoblem acronym, if oxidation occurs at the negative half cell, in the example at 15:24 if Zn is oxidised why would it not be the anode? Because at 23:49 if the strongest oxidising agents have the most positive values wouldn't Copper be the anode?

At 37:17, do we not multiply E value of Fe by 2 since there’s 2 lots of it ?
@Harry-es7zh

No- it is strange but in electrochemistry I'm sure you never multiply by the coefficient. The Value found in the electrochemical series is the same no matter how much there is
so with the fuel cells in step 5 the electrons flow to the anode and in step 7 the electrons flow away from the cathode to the anode?

41:12 can someone explain how he got the overall equation on discharge ???? I dont get it ???
@zeezee5265
2 жыл бұрын
he just added both the oxidation and reduction equations together. Why Li+ doesn't appear in the overall equation is because it appears on opposite sides of the reduction and oxidation equations (Li+ is on the product side in the negative electrode and also appears on the reactants in the positive electrode) so you cancel it out. when given redox equations, if they appear on different sides, you cancel them out. But if they appear on the same side( ie both on the reactant side or both on the product side of both half equations) you add them in the overall equation I hope this helps :)
Thank you!
THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!
If we use a high resistance voltmeter, why does the current still flow from Zn electrode to Cu electrode
@UNKNOWN-jk6wv
2 ай бұрын
It's because the salt bridge connecting the two solutions allows for the flow of ions however this shouldn't be mistaken for a current. We remove the high resistance voltmeter when we want the current to flow and replace it with something like a bulb. The high resistance voltmeter in this instance can be represented by, lets get marreid.
Hey, thank you very much for your videos, they are really really helpful. The only thing is I'm a little bit confused by the use of the words positive and negative electrodes when talking about the alkaline hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell; from the point of view of current flow isn't it the other way around, isn't no.5 the posotive electrode and no.7 the negative electrode as conventional current flows in the opposite direction to electron flow? I'm probably just misunderstanding, either way your videos are super helpful, you're doing gods work ;) thanks

Do electrons flow from a more reactive metal to a less reactive one or from the postive electrode to the negetive electrode?
@OnTheShangriLa

reactivity has nothing to do with it necessarily, electrons will flow from the negative to the positive electrode as electrons are negative and attracted to positive electrode. in this context electrons always flow away from the most negative electrode.
@koumara18

IN HALF CELLS:- electrons flow from a more reactive electrode towards a less reactive electrode. so the more reactive electrode is negative and the less reactive electrode is positive (as shown by their standard electrode potential values.)
