UNIT I BASIC ELECTROCHEMICAL CONCEPTS 9
Introduction and thermodynamic in terms of electrochemical potential-phase equilibrium,
chemical and electrochemical potentials, cells with solution of uniform concentration,
transport processes in junction regions, cells with a single electrolyte of varying
concentration. The electric potential-the electrostatic potential, intermolecular forces, outer
and inner potential, potentials of reference electrode, the electric potential in
thermodynamics. Activity coefficients-ionic distributions in dilute solutions, electrical
contribution to the free energy, measurement of activity coefficients.
UNIT II REFERENCE ELECTRODE AND ELECTRICAL DOUBLE LAYER 9
Reference electrode-criteria of reference electrodes, hydrogen electrode, the calomel
electrode and other mercury and mercurous salt electrodes, silver-silver halide electrodes.
Potentials of cells with junction- the Nernst equation, types of liquid junctions, cells with
liquid junction, potentials across membranes. Structure of the electric double layerqualitative
description of double layers, the Gibbs adsorption isotherm, the Lippmann
equation, the diffused part of the double layer. Electrode kinetics, electrokinetic phenomena,
Electro capillary phenomena.
UNIT III INFINITELY DILUTE SOLUTIONS AND THERMAL BALANCE 9
Infinitely dilute solutions-transport laws, conductivity, diffusional potential and transference
numbers, conservation of charge, binary electrolyte, supporting electrolyte, multicomponent
diffusion by elemination of the electric field. Mobilities and diffusion coefficients. Neutrality
and Laplace’s equation. Concentrated solutions- liquid junction potentials. Thermal effectsthermal
diffusion, heat generation, conervation and transfer. Thermogalvanic cells.
UNIT IV TRANSPORT PROPERTIES 9
Transport properties- single and multicomponent solutions. Fluid mechanics-stress in a
Newtonian fluid, magnitude of electrical forces. Transport in dilutes solutions, simplification
for convective transport, the Graetz problem, two-dimensional diffusion layer in laminar
forced convection, axisymmetric diffusion layers in forced convection.
UNIT V POTENTIAL THEORY 9
Application of potential theory- primary and secondary current distribution. Numerical
solution. Effect of migration on limiting currents-Correction factors for limiting currents.
Concentration variation of supporting electrolyte, limiting currents for free convection.
Concentration overpotential-binary electrolyte, supporting electrolyte. Currents below the
limiting current.
TOTAL : 45 PERIODS
