Introduction to Electrochemistry
A study of interconversion between chemical energy and electrical energy
: chemical reaction by electrical current or vice versa
(electrical energy ↔ chemical energy)
A study including movement of electrons, ions, and the interaction of them
: ionic reaction, electrical current, and their interaction, resulting in generation of flow of charge
Discovery of bioelectricity by Galvani (1791), invention of the battery (Volta battery), electrolysis of water (1800), Daniell battery (1836)…
Batteries, Electroplating, Opto-electrochemistry, Electronic engineering, Sensors, Biology…
