Electrochemical series ranks metals by reducing ability; used to predict spontaneity of redox reactions and corrosion susceptibility.
Stapsgewijze handleiding
- 1Input two half-reactions
- 2Look up standard reduction potentials
- 3Calculate cell potential: E°_cell = E°_cathode - E°_anode
Uitgewerkte voorbeelden
Invoer
Zn + Cu²⁺: E° = 0.76 - (-0.76) = 1.52 V (spontaneous)
Resultaat
Opposite reaction non-spontaneous (unless forced)
Veelgemaakte fouten om te vermijden
- ✕Confusing oxidation and reduction half-reactions
- ✕Using wrong sign convention
Veelgestelde vragen
What's the relationship to corrosion?
Metal higher in series (more negative) acts as anode, corrodes preferentially.
