The Applications of Half-Cells and Cell Potential…

The Applications of Half-Cells and Cell Potential –
(i) Electrochemical cells consist of two half-cells, each of them is made up of an electrode that is immersed in an electrolyte.
(ii) The purpose of which is to make ionic interactions between them without allowing them to mix with each other.
(iii) The tendency of an electrode that is in contact with an electrolyte to lose or gain electrons is described by its electrode potential.
