    Sir why we use nernst equation to determine non standerd electrode potential?why we not determine electrod potential without nernst equation like Standerd elecytode potential.

    When studying corrosion, I have found from many authors (and I teacher I had) that the sign in the equation is (+) not (-) and Q equals to the cations concentration. Could you explain this for me please? Is driving me crazy not knowing which sign should I use in the equation. It depends on what?

  • @galacticnomad734

    I'm just lost on why you would add the cathode and anode when the formula is Ecathode - Eanode = Ecell.

    • @bobbob-in1ml
      @bobbob-in1ml 3 місяці тому

      Ecell = Ecathode - Eanode when they're both reduction potentials
      *If the cathode is reduction potential, while the anode is oxidation potential, you can just add them up (you normally subtract anode because you're trying to turn a given reduction potential to an oxidation potential)

    Wouldn't Q=(products to the power of their coefficients)/(reactants to the power of their coefficients?)

      +Abigail Goff Kind of like you would in equilibria?

    • @Masrur111
      @Masrur111 9 років тому +7

      +Abigail Goff "Q" is called 'the reaction quotient' and "K" is called 'the equilibrium constant'. They are both calculated in the same way.
      Q or K = the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants of a reversible reaction.
      Second brackets [ ] are used to show concentration(usually molar concentration) of something. Molar concentration=moles/volume.
      There is deference between Q and K. Both are ratios of the same things, but calculated at different phases of a reaction. K is during equilibrium. That means, at equilibrium, Q=K
      But at other times, QK and this gives the direction of that reaction. If left untouched any reversible reaction will achieve equilibrium over time.
      Q(also K) is thermodynamically related to Free Energy, G. G is also related to Electric Potential Difference or Voltage. Hence the video.

      +Mostafa Al-Quadir Can I calculate Pressure and Concrentration in the same equation for Q?

    • @Masrur111
      @Masrur111 9 років тому +4

      +Top 10s The reaction quotient (Q) is a measure of the relative amounts of reactants and products during a chemical reaction at a given point in time. or simply ratio of [product] to [reactant]. If a product/reactant is dissolved in aqueous solution, we use concentrations for all of them. If all reactants/products are gaseous we use partial pressures to calculate Q. Can we use Pressures and concentrations in a single equation to solve Q?
      The answer is yes. But we will need to convert Pressure to concentration and vice-versa as we need. We know concentration [ ]=moles/liters =n/V. We also know PV = nRT. So, P = CRT. This is the equation for conversion. Hope that answers the question.
      Note: We don't include solids & liquids in the calculations, only aqueous and gaseous.

      We only subtract when both of the potentials are reduction. e red ( cathode ) - e red ( anode ) is correct. Also, e red ( cathode ) + e ox ( anode ) will give the same value.
