GALVANIC CELL




  • a galvanic cell is used to generate electricity through chemical reactions. daniel cell is the example of the galvanic cell.
  • the cell which is used for the electrolysis process is called a galvanic cell.
  • voltaic, electrochemical cell, etc,. these are other names of a galvanic cell.

coming to the construction of a galvanic cell;


the galvanic cell consists of two subcells,

one with the zinc electrode in ZnSo4, another is with the cOpper electrode in CuSo4.

both the cells are connected with a salt bridge, the salt bridge consists of agar agar gel saturated with the KCl or kNO3 or NH4NO3.

the purpose of the salt bridge is to prevent the accumulation of charge around the electrodes and also maintains the neutrality of the solution.
it allows the current by completing the circuit.



the zinc electrode is the anode(-) and the copper electrode is the cathode(+).
the oxidation reaction is taking place at the anode which causes the zinc electrons to move to the copper electrode. these electrons moved through the electric wire connected with both electrodes.the reduction reaction takes place at the copper electrode.

the reaction in terms of chemical formulas:


both the reactions are combined and as we called as like redox reaction.

note:

oxidation is the process of losing the electrons according to the chemistry dictionary.
the reduction in the process of accepting the electrons according to the chemistry dictionary.
the large potential difference occurs at the anodic metal.

SATELLITE

Hello all,  today I explained the satellites. study carefully. satellite is nothing but an object that revolves around the planet in a curved path. satellites are two types: natural satellites(the moon is a satellite because which revolves around the earth) artificial satellites(human-made) coming to the topic of artificial satellites; artificial satellites are made by the human and launched by the human through the rockets into the orbit of the planet. the satellite launching involves two steps: the satellite has to be taken into the desired altitude. pushed out from the spacecraft at the right velocity to begin and maintain it's orbit. the satellite launch vehicle moves straight only for a few seconds. A satellite launch vehicle is a multistage rocket, consists of a smaller booster rocket for boosting. boosters give the rocket initial thrust during the launch and carry the vehicle rarely part of the flight. when the fuel completed in the boosters they fall away from the rocket ot...

ALKANES AND ALKENES,ALKYNES

ALKANES: these are also called paraffin. alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons. the formula of alkanes (CnH2n+2). when the H atom is removed from the alkane then it is replaced by the name of alkyl. the formula for alkyl is (Cn H2n+1). the carbon atom in it shows the sp3 hybridization. the bond length is equal to 1.54°A. ALKENES: these are also called as olefins means form oil products. it possess a double bond between them. the formula is (CnH2n). the carbon atom in it shows the sp2 hybridization. the bond length is equal to 1.34°A. ALKYNES: these are also called as acetylenes. the formula for this is (Cn H2n-2). the carbon atom in it possesses a triple bond and also shows the linear shape means it is in an sp hybridization. the bond length is equal to 1.20°A.
