Understanding Faraday's Constant and the Nernst Equation in Electrochemistry

This piece explores the foundational concepts in electrochemistry, focusing on Faraday's constant, electric current, Ohm's law, and the Nernst equation. It details how potential differences in electrochemical cells relate to charge and resistance, defining key terms like work and energy in the context of electrochemical reactions. The article also discusses how ion-selective electrodes are utilized in understanding blood tests like the CHEM-7 panel, emphasizing the significance of thermodynamics and equilibrium in chemical processes.

  1. Elechtrochemistry 17

  2. How much? – Faraday’s constant. F = (6.022 x 1023 mol-1)x (1.602192 x 10-19 C) = 96,484 C mol-1

  3. Faraday

  4. Electricity Current = Charge/time - I = Q/t [Ampere]=[Coulomb]/[sec] Potential = Current x Resistance - E = I R (Ohms law) [Volt]=[Ampere] [Ohm]

  5. So what is resistance? NB: Potential is relative!

  6. Work = Potential x Charge - W = E q [Joule] = [Volt] [Coulomb]

  25. Ion selective electrode CHEM-7 is a group of blood tests that provides information about your body's metabolism. The test is commonly called a basic metabolic panel. BUN: 7 to 20 mg/dL CO2 (carbon dioxide): 20 to 29 mmol/L Creatinine: 0.8 to 1.4 mg/dL Glucose: 64 to 128 mg/dL Serum chloride: 101 to 111 mmol/L Serum potassium: 3.7 to 5.2 mEq/L Serum sodium: 136 to 144 mEq/L

  26. Ion selective electrode Selectivity And interference
