Course Objectives | The course initially gives an overview of electrode processes showing the way in which the fundamental components of the subject come together in an electrochemical experiment. Also, there are individual discussions of thermodynamics and potential, electron-transfer kinetics, and mass transfer. Concepts from these basic areas are integrated together in treatments of the various methods. There is an introduction of batteries and electrochemical cells. Then, the course follows an extensive introduction to experiments in which electrochemistry is coupled with other tools. Finally, the course explains the electrochemistry of the conducting polymers, corrosion and fuel cells. |
