  53. Slide 89 / 144 Electro motive force · Water only spontaneously flows one way in a waterfall. · Likewise, electrons only spontaneously flow one way in a redox reaction—from higher to lower potential energy. · The accumulation of large number of electrons at the anode create higher potential at the anode. · Natural flow will occur to cathode where there is less potential · Higher - to - lower

  54. Slide 90 / 144 Electro motive force · The potential difference between the anode and cathode in a cell is called the electromotive force (emf). · It is also called the cell potential and is designated E cell .

  55. Slide 91 / 144 Electro motive force The difference in potential energy /electon charge is measured in volts. 1 volt is the potential required to impart 1joule energy to a charge of 1coulomb 1v = 1J / 1C The potential difference between the electrodes is the driving force that pushes the electrons - so called EMF In a voltaic cell, EMF = E cell

  56. Slide 92 / 144 Electromotive Force (emf) Cell potential is measured in volts (V). 1V = 1J/C In a spontaneous reaction, E cell is positive EMF depends on the cell reaction involved Standard condition: 1M, 1atm and 25°C E° cell = standard cell potential

  57. Slide 93 / 144 Standard Reduction Potentials Electrode potential: The tendency of an electrode to lose or gain electrons is called electrode potential ( oxidation or reduction potential) Reduction potentials for many electrodes have been measured and tabulated. By convention, the process is viewed as a reduction and the values are reported as reduction potential Li + (aq) + e- ➝ Li(s) -3.05 Na + (aq) + e- ➝ Na(s) -2.71 Al 3+ (aq) + 3e- ➝ Al(s) -1.66 2H + (aq) + 2e- ➝ H 2 (g 0 Cu 2+ (aq) + 2e- ➝ Cu(s) + 0.34 F 2 (g) + 2e- ➝ 2F - (aq) + 2.87 The more negative value indicate that, reduction is unlikely at that electrode The more positive the value is, reduction is highly likely at that electrode.

  63. Slide 99 / 144 Cell Potentials The cell potential at standard conditions can be found through this equation: E cell = E o red.pot (cathode) − E o red.pot (anode) Because cell potential is based on the potential energy per unit of charge, it is an intensive property. This means that it does not depend on the amount of substance (e.g. mass or moles).

  64. Slide 100 / 144 Cell Potentials A cell with Cu and Zn electrodes · For the oxidation in this cell, · E ° red = - 0.76v · For the reduction, · E ° red = + 0.34v Cu Zn 1M Cu(NO 3 ) 2 1M Zn(NO 3 ) 2 Cu 2+ (aq) + 2e- ➝ Cu(s) Zn(s) ➝ Zn 2+ + 2e-
