General Characteristics
Reversible electrode potential of a reaction:
¨
An+ + ne à Ao
May be calculated using the Nernst equation:
E = Eo – RT/nF ln(aAo/aAn+)
Anodic: Ao à An+ + ne
Cathodic: Bm+ + me à Bo
Positive over potential à
cathode
Negative overpotential à
anode
At U = equilibrium reversible
electrode potential, net current
density = 0
Anodic: Ao à An+ + ne
Cathodic: Bm+ + me à Bo
¨ Power = U x I
Effect of Mass Transfer
Anodic: Ao à An+ + ne
Cathodic: Bm+ + me à Bo
