Introduction to Electrochemistry Electrochemistry is a branch of chemistry that studies the relationship between electrical energy and chemical reactions. Definition : It involves two main aspects: The production of electricity from the energy released during spontaneous chemical reactions. The use of electrical energy to drive non-spontaneous chemical transformations. Significance : Electrochemistry is important for both theoretical and practical considerations. Industrial Applications : Many metals (like sodium), sodium hydroxide, chlorine, fluorine, and other chemicals are produced using electrochemical methods. Energy Conversion : Batteries...
