Electrochemistry
Here are the list of major topics you should be familiar with from this chapter:
- Assigning oxidation numbers
- Identifying oxidizing and reducing agents
- Redox reactions (identifying and writing half reactions)
- Using oxidation numbers to predict redox reactions
- Balancing redox reactions in acidic and basic conditions using the half reaction method (and the oxidation state method if your teacher will test on that content)
- Spontaneity rule
- Galvanic cell (drawing, labelling, identifying the direction of electron and ion flow)
- Cell potential calculations (aka E or electromotive force or e.m.f)
