Electrochemical Cells Techniques involved in measuring the voltage of an electrochemical cell and some common errors in constructing electrochemical cells are demonstrated.
Consider the electrochemical cell diagram shown below. As you observe the reaction in the cell, you notice that the tin electrode seems to be disappearing while there are deposits forming on the silver electrode. Which of the following is a correct statement?
Textbook Error: Short Circuiting an Electrochemical CellJudith M. Bonicamp and Roy W. Clark Reports a serious error in the electrochemical diagrams in eight, 21st century texts and offers an analogy to electrical potential energy and a diagram to clarify the interrelationships between electromotive force E, reaction quotient Q, and Gibbs free energy G. Bonicamp, Judith M.; Clark, Roy W. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 731.

The Effective Use of an Interactive Software Program To Reduce Students' Misconceptions about BatteriesE.-M. Yang, T. J. Greenbowe, and T. Andre In this study, college students enrolled in an introductory chemistry course were asked a series of open-ended questions about electrochemistry, flashlights, and batteries. Misconceptions were identified, analyzed, and used to develop and test an Interactive Software Program (ISP). Yang, E.-M.; Greenbowe, T. J.; Andre, T. J. Chem. Educ.2004, 81, 587.
Electrochemical Cells(ChemPages Lab)John W. Moore, Jerrold J. Jacobsen, Joe L. March Electrochemical Cells: this is a resource in the collection "ChemPages Laboratory Resources". The cell design described in this module includes two solutions connected by salt bridge (piece of string) and two electrodes (metal strips) connected to a voltmeter. The ChemPages Laboratory Resources are a set of web pages that include text, images, video, and self check questions. The topics included are those that are commonly encountered in the first-year chemistry laboratory. They have been put together for use as both a pre-laboratory preparation tool and an in-laboratory reference source.
