Electrochemical Series: Metal Trees A piece of metal (Cu, Zn, Ag, Cd, or Pb) is placed in an aqueous solution of a metal ion (Cu2+, Zn2+, Ag+, Cd2+, or Pb2+). In some cases the growth of metal crystals indicates that a chemical reaction has occurred.
One method for protecting metals against corrosion is to connect the metal directly to a "sacrificial anode". This is the method used to protect pipelines and ships hulls. Which of the following metals would you consider the best candidate for a sacrificial anode for a ship's hull? The hull is steel (which is mostly iron).
Consider a cell composed of the following half-reactions. Determine the
magnitude of E° for the cell and decide whether the reaction will be
product-favored or reactant-favored as written.
Introducing Undergraduate Students to Electrochemistry: A Two-Week Discovery Chemistry ExperimentKenneth V. Mills, Richard S. Herrick, Louise W. Guilmette, Lisa P. Nestor, Heather Shafer, and Mauri A. Ditzler, Within the framework of a laboratory-focused, guided-inquiry pedagogy, students discover the Nernst equation, the spontaneity of galvanic cells, concentration cells, and the use of electrochemical data to calculate equilibrium constants. Mills, Kenneth V.; Herrick, Richard S.; Guilmette, Louise W.; Nestor, Lisa P.; Shafer, Heather;Ditzler, Mauri A. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1116.

Electrochemical Polishing of Silverware: A Demonstration of Voltaic and Galvanic CellsMichelle M. Ivey and Eugene T. Smith Using a battery and a graphite electrode, an electrolytic cell is constructed to generate a layer of tarnish on silverware. Students then determine that the tarnish can be removed by electrochemically converting it back to silver using aluminum foil and baking soda. Ivey, Michelle M.; Smith, Eugene T. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 68.

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.
