Oxidation — definition?
Loss of electrons during a chemical reaction.
Oxidation — definition?
Loss of electrons during a chemical reaction.
Electrochemical cell — role?
Converts chemical energy to electrical energy or vice versa.
Reduction — definition?
Gain of electrons during a chemical reaction.
Galvanic vs electrolytic — difference?
Galvanic is spontaneous; electrolytic is non-spontaneous.
Oxidizing agent — role?
Accepts electrons, causes oxidation of others.
Reducing agent — role?
Donates electrons, causes reduction of others.
Redox reaction — involves?
Simultaneous oxidation and reduction.
Electrochemical cell — function?
Converts chemical energy to electrical energy.
Anode — where?
Oxidation occurs; negative in galvanic cells.
