Synopsis

This richly illustrated addition to the renowned Oxford Chemistry Primer series provides a comprehensive introduction to equilibrium electrochemistry. Dealing with electrode potentials and their applications, this primer focuses on understanding the foundations of electrochemistry and how it can be applied to practical problems.

Key features:
- Includes important information on a variety of subjects in electrochemistry including equilibrium constants, Gibbs Energy, enthalpy and entropy changes of chemical reactions, and activity coefficients
- Extensive problems and worked examples

New to this edition:
- An introduction to batteries and fuel cells
- Additional bibliographic notes on historical founders and modern influencers of electrochemistry
- Frost and Latimer diagrams
- Enhanced discussion of diffusion and transport
- Industrial electro-synthetic processes

Digital formats and resources:
The second edition is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats: the e-book and Science Trove offer a mobile experience and convenient access along with functionality tools, navigation features and links that offer extra learning support.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Richard Compton was the Aldrichian Praelector and Professor in the Department of Chemistry, Oxford until 2023. He is now Emeritus Research Fellow at St John's College, Oxford and Visiting Chair of Electrochemistry at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, of IUPAC and of the International Society of Electrochemistry. He has published in excess of 1650 papers in the area of electrochemistry, as well as 7 books. Most notably he has co-authored: Understanding Voltammetry and the scientific biography, A G Stromberg - First Class Scientist, Second Class Citizen. Letters from the GULAG and a History of Electroanalysis in the USSR.

Giles Sanders is the Head of Diagnostics at TTP Plc, a Cambridge based technology innovation and product development company. Since the publication of the first edition of Electrode Potentials in 1996, Giles has continued to apply learnings from his Degree and DPhil studies at Oxford (the latter under the supervision of Richard Compton) to help companies develop new innovative products and technology in discovery chemistry, sensors and diagnostics.

Jake (formal name Minjun) Yang received his MChem and DPhil from the University of Oxford. After Jake's DPhil viva in 2020, he received an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Award to develop electrochemical sensors to monitor 'blue carbon' sequestered by the Ocean. His research concerns how electrons interact with molecules and ions and how one might use this to strategically probe the world around us. Jake was appointed lecturer of Physical Chemistry at the University of Leicester in 2023 where he is leading research and undergraduate teaching.
