Application of Galvanic Cells by Christian Dave Zaspa https://padlet.com/zaspachristiandave/3agx1y5dbwf7w9bg What are Galvanic Cells & their Application? en-us 2022-12-19 18:17:26 UTC 2022-12-20 04:19:17 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/1918593544/9a9f5e6339c5859ededa61642cdd6dbb/Battery__1__removebg_preview.png ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪꜱ ᴀ ʙᴀᴛᴛᴇʀʏ🔋 zaspachristiandave https://padlet.com/zaspachristiandave/3agx1y5dbwf7w9bg/wish/2425095954 ► A battery is an electrochemical cell that can convert chemical energy to electricity generation due to a spontaneous oxidation-reduction or redox reaction that involves electron transfer from one substance to the other. 

► The essential components of a battery are the anode, cathode, and electrolyte. The anode is the electrode at which the oxidation half-reaction occurs, and the cathode is the electrode at which the reduction half-reaction happens. The electrolyte is the solution that contains positive or negative charges that assist in regulating the chemical reaction.

► In connecting the battery to an electrical circuit, the anode and cathode will react to the electrolyte solution in a redox reaction until the battery output depletes as the electrodes dissolve, requiring it for replacement.

► The necessary components of a fuel cell are the anode, cathode, electrolyte exchange membrane, fuel, and air. The fuel will pass through the anode, where oxidation will occur. On the other hand, air will go through the cathode, which reduction occurs. The electrolyte exchange membrane conducts the ions to the cathode as the oxygen from the air combines with the fuel's hydrogen. Thus, its byproduct is water. 

►  As the fuel cell have a constant supply of fuel and air to maintain its chemical reaction, it constantly creates electricity. With this, it serves as a renewable energy source, as its only byproduct is water.]]> 2022-12-19 18:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/zaspachristiandave/3agx1y5dbwf7w9bg/wish/2425098375 3 ꜱɪᴍɪʟᴀʀɪᴛɪᴇꜱ ʙᴇᴛᴡᴇᴇɴ ʙᴀᴛᴛᴇʀɪᴇꜱ & ꜰᴜᴇʟ ᴄᴇʟʟꜱ🤔 zaspachristiandave https://padlet.com/zaspachristiandave/3agx1y5dbwf7w9bg/wish/2425100129 ► Batteries and fuel cells are electrochemical cells that convert chemical energy to electrical energy. 

► They utilized a spontaneous redox reaction involving electron transfer from one substance to another, producing an electric current. 

► Both have anodes and cathodes that rely on an electric circuit to produce a current flow.

► The chemical energy of batteries stems from ions of metals. The chemical energy of fuel cells comes from fuel and air. 

► Batteries deplete their electrical output once the anode and cathode metal electrode dissolves, requiring the whole battery to be replaced. On the flip side, once a fuel cell completely used fuel and air, it can be renewable supplied again to continually produced electrical energy. ]]> 2022-12-19 18:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/zaspachristiandave/3agx1y5dbwf7w9bg/wish/2425101230 ᴛʏᴘᴇꜱ ᴏꜰ ʙᴀᴛᴛᴇʀɪᴇꜱ⚡ zaspachristiandave https://padlet.com/zaspachristiandave/3agx1y5dbwf7w9bg/wish/2425102310 Primary Batteries
↳ Primary batteries, also known as disposable batteries utilize the electrical energy from the chemical energy of the decomposition of the electrode and electrolyte, resulting in an irreversible chemical process of the breakdown of electrodes or electrolyte. Thus, it requires replacing the battery.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Secondary Batteries
↳A secondary battery is an electrochemical cell that has reversible cell reactions. It means that the chemical reaction within the battery is restorable by passing a current flow into it. Thus, it is rechargeable from an external electrical source.

↳Solid oxide fuel cells are electrochemical batteries with a solid oxide or ceramic electrolyte. They can operate at very high temperatures typically 500 to 1000 °C.  It acts as an auxiliary power unit in a wide variety of applications, such as in vehicles for stationary power generation with outputs from 100 W to 2 MW. 


Oxidation or Anode Reaction:
2H2 + 2O2− → 2H2O + 4e−

Reduction or Cathode Reaction:
O2 + 4e− → 2O2−

Overall Cell Reaction:
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Molten-Carbonate Fuel Cell
↳Molten-Carbonate fuel cells are high-temperature fuel cells that have an operational temperature of 600 °C and above. It is more cost-effective than phosphoric acid fuel cells due to metal can be a catalyst at the anode and cathode due to its high operating temperatures. It is commonly used in coal-based power plants for electrical utility, industrial, and military applications.

Oxidation or Anode Reaction: 
CO32− + H2 → H2O + CO2 + 2e−

Reduction or Cathode Reaction: 
CO2 + ½O2 + 2e− → CO32−

Overall Cell Reaction: 
H2 + ½O2 → H2O
