9个实验
Electrochemistry experiments demonstrate the interconversion of chemical and electrical energy. Students build galvanic cells from different metals, measure cell voltages, perform electrolysis, and explore Faraday's laws. These experiments connect abstract thermodynamic concepts to tangible observations — lighting a bulb with a lemon battery or copper-plating a key.
Learning Objectives
Understand half-cell reactions, calculate standard cell potentials using electrode potential tables, verify Faraday's laws (mass deposited proportional to charge passed), and explore factors affecting cell voltage including concentration, temperature, and electrode surface area.
Key Techniques
Construct a Daniell cell using zinc and copper electrodes in their respective sulfate solutions connected by a salt bridge. Measure open-circuit voltage with a high-impedance voltmeter. For electrolysis, weigh electrodes before and after to verify Faraday's laws. Use a potentiostat for precise voltage control in advanced experiments.
Equipment Overview
Required: metal electrodes (Zn, Cu, Fe, Mg), electrolyte solutions, salt bridges (KNO3 in agar), voltmeter, ammeter, DC power supply for electrolysis, analytical balance (0.001 g). Advanced: potentiostat, reference electrodes (Ag/AgCl, SCE).
