E°CELL, G° AND K
Under standard state conditions, a reaction
will spontaneously proceeds in the forward
direction if:
– G° < 1 (negative)
– E° > 1 (positive)
–K>1

OBJECTIVE 11.4: PROVIDE A THOROUGH OVERVIEW OF
APPLICATIONS OF ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS INCLUDING FUEL CELLS,
CORROSION, AND OTHER TOPICS AS TIME PERMITS.

CORROSION
• corrosion is the spontaneous oxidation of a
metal by chemicals in the environment
• since many materials we use are active
metals, corrosion can be a very big problem
RUSTING
•
•
•
•
rust is hydrated iron(III) oxide
moisture must be present
electrolytes promote rusting
acids promote rusting
– lower pH = lower E°red
