Faraday's constant measures electric charge per mole of elementary charges. One mole equals 6.022 x 10²³ atoms or molecules. F = NA*e, where NA is Avogadro's constant and e is electron charge
Voltammetry measures current versus potential in electrochemical cells. Voltammograms plot current versus potential for analyte concentration determination. Electrochemical cells consist of analyte solution, electrolyte, and two-three electrodes
Ionic strength measures concentration of ions in solution. Can be expressed as molar (mol/L) or molal (mol/kg solvent). Concept introduced by Lewis and Randall in 1921
Lithium oxide (Li2O) is a white solid with antifluorite structure. Forms when lithium metal burns in air above 100°C. Pure Li2O can be produced by thermal decomposition of Li2O2 at 450°C
Invented first electric motor in 1822 to convert electrical to mechanical energy. Discovered benzene in 1825 from illuminating gas residue. First liquefied chlorine and ammonia gases, proving gas liquefaction possible
Electrochemistry studies electricity generation from chemical reactions. Electrons transfer during oxidation-reduction reactions to produce electricity. Chemical and electrical energy can be converted through electrochemical processes
