The meanings of oxidation and reduction; why an oxidizing agent is reduced and a reducing agent is oxidized.
.
How the half-reaction method is used to balance redox reactions in acidic or basic solution.
.
The distinction between voltaic and electrolytic cells in terms of the sign of ∆G.
.
How voltaic cells use a spontaneous reaction to release electrical energy.
.
The physical makeup of a voltaic cell: arrangement and composition of half-cells, relative charges of electrodes, and purpose of a salt bridge.
.
How the difference in reducing strength of the electrodes determines the direction of electron flow in a voltaic cell.
.
The correspondence between a positive E_cell and a spontaneous cell reaction.
.
The usefulness and significance of standard electrode potentials (Eº_half-cells).
.
How Eº_half-cell values are combined to give Eº_cell.
.
How the standard reference electrode is used to find an unknown Eº_half-cell.
.
How an emf series is used to write spontaneous redox reactions.
.
How the relative reactivity of a metal is determined by its reducing power and is related to the negative of its Eº_half-cell.
.
How E_cell (the nonstandard cell potential) is related to ∆G (maximum work) and the charge (moles of electrons times the Faraday constant) flowing through the cell.
.
The interrelationship of ∆Gº, Eº_cell, and K.
.
How E_cell changes as the cell operates (as Q changes).
.
Why a voltaic cell can do work until Q = K.
.
How a concentration cell does work until the half-cell concentrations are equal.
.
The distinction between primary (nonrechargeable) and secondary (rechargeable) batteries and the nature of fuel cells.
.
How corrosion occurs and is prevented; the similarities between corroding metal and a voltaic cell.
.
How electrolytic cells use spontaneous redox reactions driven by an external source of electricity.
.
How atomic properties (ionization energy and electronegativity) determine the products of the electrolysis of molten salt mixtures.
.
How the electrolysis of water influences the products of aqueous electrolysis; the importance of overvoltage.
.
The relationship between the quantity of charge flowing through the cell and the amount of product formed.
