The cathode is defined as the electrode at which reduction occurs, i.e., where electrons are consumed, regardless of whether the electrochemical cell is an electrolytic or voltaic cell. In both electrolytic and voltaic cells, the electrons flow through the wire from the anode, where electrons are produced, to the cathode, where electrons are consumed. In an electrolytic cell, the dc source forces the electrons to travel nonspontaneously through the wire. Thus, the electrons flow from the positive electrode (the anode) to the negative electrode (the cathode). However, in a voltaic cell, the electrons flow spontaneously, away from the negative electrode (the anode) and toward the positive electrode (the cathode). [Pg.352]

Charge flows through the cell as soon as the wires of the electrodes touch each other, with electrons travelling from the more negative to the more positive electrode. It is these electrons which allow the reduction reaction to proceed at the right-hand side of the cell, where they are consumed as part of the electrode reaction. Since the electrons from the left fuel the reaction at the right, we see that the extent of electrochemical reaction must be the same at both sides of the cell. We say that these reactions are complementary. [Pg.109]

In [53], oscillatory wave patterns observed during electrochemical dissolution of a nickel wire in acidic media was reported. It was shown that space-averaged potential or current oscillations are associated with the creation of an inhomogeneous current distribution, and that the selection of a specific spatial current pattern depends on the current control mode of the electrochemical cell. In the almost potentiostatic (fixed potential) mode of operation, a train of traveling pulses prevails, whereas antiphase oscillations occur in the galvanostatic (constant average current) mode. [Pg.506]

The area of a polished electrode (taken to be the projected or geometric area in most voltammetric experiments at times > 1 s) usually is measured directly or electrochemically. If the electrode is of regular geometry, such as a disk, sphere, or wire of uniform diameter, its characteristic dimensions can be measured by use of a micrometer, optical comparator, or traveling microscope and the area calculated. [Pg.216]

But electrochemical reactions have to obey the laws of electronics as well as the laws of chemistry, so even if the solutions are connected by a wire, the circuit has to be completed or the electrons will travel only so far and no farther. Contact is normally achieved by an ion-containing... [Pg.261]

When Zn metal is placed into a Cu solution, Zn is oxidized and Cu is reduced—electrons are transferred directly from the Zn to the Cu . Suppose we separate the reactants and force the electrons to travel through a wire to get from the Zn to the Cu . The flowing electrons constitute an electrical current and can be used to do electrical work. This process is normally carried out in an electrochemical cell, a device that creates electrical current from a spontaneous redox reaction (or that uses electrical current to drive a nonspontaneous redox reaction). Electrochemical cells that create electrical current from spontaneous reactions are called voltaic cells or galvanic cells. A battery is a voltaic cell that (usually) has been designed for portability. [Pg.593]
