Luigi Galvani (9 September 1737 – 4 December 1798) was an Italian physician and physicist who lived and died in Bologna. In 1771, he discovered that the muscles of dead frogs twitched when struck by a spark. He was a pioneer in modern obstetrics, and discovered that muscle and nerve cells produce electricity.

Electrode Polarization
Ideal polarized electrode (IPE)
No charge transfer can occur across the metal-solution interface regardless of the potential imposed by an outside source of voltage
Ideal nonpolarized electrode (InPE)
The potential of the electrode will not change from its equilibrium potential with the application of even a large current density. The reason for this behavior is that the electrode reaction is extremely fast (has an almost infinite exchange current density).

Cell Resistance
Most electrodes are neither IPE nor InPE. For reference electrodes, any deviation from InPE will cause fluctuation in potential control
Introduction of a CE minimizes the current passage through RE. But it is still nonzero, therefore producing a nonzero resistance (iRs), which may distort the voltammetric data.

Michael Faraday Michael Faraday, FRS (22 September 1791 –
25 August 1867) was an English chemist and physicist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry.
As a chemist, Faraday discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the bunsen burner and the system of oxidation numbers, and popularized terminology such as anode, cathode, electrode, and ion.
The SI unit of capacitance, the farad, is named after him, as is the Faraday constant, the charge on a mole of electrons (about 96,485 coulombs). Faraday's law of induction states that a magnetic field changing in time creates a proportional electromotive force.
Slide that Faraday used in his lecture on gold sols, in 1858
“ Work. Finish. Publish.”

Faradaic and Non-Faradaic Processes
Faradaic process: charge transfer across the electrode|electrolyte interface, a.k.a. the double-layer (Faraday’s Law)
Non-Faradaic process: no charge transfer across the electrode|electrolyte interface but the structure at the double-layer may vary (double-layer charging) Ions in electric field

Supercapacitor vs Battery
The supercapacitor (electrochemical double-layer capacitor) resembles a regular capacitor with the exception that it offers very high capacitance in a small package. Energy storage is by means of static charge rather than of an electrochemical process that is inherent to the battery.
The concept is similar to an electrical charge that builds up when walking on a carpet. The supercapacitor concept has been around for a number of years. Newer designs allow higher capacities in a smaller size.
RuOx is a leading candidate of supercapacitor materials
![Page 23: ElectrochemistryMichael Faraday Michael Faraday, FRS (22 September 1791 – 25 August 1867) was an English chemist and physicist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052310/609bee479c296d767701e263/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Supercapacitors
Disadvantages The amount of energy stored per unit weight is considerably lower than that of an electrochemical battery (3-5
W·h/kg for an ultracapacitor compared to 30-40 W·h/kg for a lead acid battery). It is also only about 1/10,000th the volumetric energy density of gasoline.
The voltage varies with the energy stored. To effectively store and recover energy requires sophisticated electronic control and switching equipment.
Advantages Very high rates of charge and discharge. Little degradation over hundreds of thousands of cycles. Good reversibility Low toxicity of materials used. High cycle efficiency (95% or more) Low cost per cycle compared to batteries

Electrochemical Currents
Faradaic current
Faraday’s law N = Q/nF
Rate = dN/dt = i/nF (as electrochemical reactions are heterogeneous in nature, they are depending upon the electrode surface area, so typically, rate = i/nFA)
Double-layer Charging current
Classic Physics C = q/E
Double-layer charging current iDL = CDLAv
Total current I = iDL + iF

Walther Nernst Walther Hermann Nernst (25 June
1864 – 18 November 1941) was a German physical chemist and physicist who is known for his theories behind the calculation of chemical affinity as embodied in the third law of thermodynamics, for which he won the 1920 Nobel Prize in chemistry.
Nernst helped establish the modern field
of physical chemistry and contributed to electrochemistry, thermodynamics, solid state chemistry and photochemistry. He is also known for developing the Nernst equation.

Kinetically Controlled Reactions
Overpotential ()
Deviation from the equilibrium potential (extra driving force) = E - Eeq
The reaction overpotential can be reduced or eliminated with the use of homogeneous or heterogeneous electrocatalysts. The electrochemical reaction rate and related current density is dictated by the kinetics of the electrocatalyst and substrate concentration (e.g., ORR)

Potential Distribution in a Conducting
Phase
Changes in the potential of a conducting phase can be effected by the charge distribution
If the phase undergoes a change in its excess charge, its charge carriers will adjust such that the excess becomes wholly distributed over an entire boundary of the phase
The surface distribution is such that the electric field strength within the phase is zero under null–current condition
The interior of the phase features a constant potential

Interfacial Distribution of Potential
At equilibrium (null current), all conducting phases exhibit an equi-potential surface; that means, the potential difference only occurs at the interface

Transition-State Theory
The theory was first developed by R. Marcelin in 1915, then continued by Henry Eyring and Michael Polanyi (Eyring equation) in 1931, with their construction of a potential energy surface for a chemical reaction, and later, in 1935, by H. Pelzer and Eugene Wigner. Meredith Evans, working in coordination with Polanyi, also contributed significantly to this theory.

Transition-State Theory
Transition state theory is also known as activated-complex theory or theory of absolute reaction rates.
In chemistry, transition state theory is a conception of chemical reactions or other processes involving rearrangement of matter as proceeding through a continuous change or "transition state" in the relative positions and potential energies of the constituent atoms and molecules.

Svante August Arrhenius
Svante August Arrhenius (19 February 1859 – 2 October 1927) was a Swedish scientist, originally a physicist, but often referred to as a chemist, and one of the founders of the science of physical chemistry.
The Arrhenius equation, lunar crater Arrhenius and the Arrhenius Labs at Stockholm University are named after him.

John Alfred Valentine Butler John Alfred Valentine Butler (born 14 February, 1899) was the
British physical chemist who was the first to connect the kinetic electrochemistry built up in the second half of the twentieth century with the thermodynamic electrochemistry that dominated the first half. He had to his credit, not only the first exponential relation between current and potential (1924), but also (along with R.W. Gurney) the introduction of energy-level thinking into electrochemistry (1951).
However, Butler did not get all quite right and therefore it is necessary to give credit also to Max Volmer, a great German surface chemist of the 1930 and his student Erdey-Gruz. Butler's very early contribution in 1924 and the Erdey-Gruz and Volmer contribution in 1930 form the basis of phenomenological kinetic electrochemistry. The resulting famous Butler-Volmer equation is very important in electrochemistry.
Butler was the quintessential absent-minded research scientist of legend, often lost to the world in thought. During such periods of contemplation he sometimes whistled softly to himself, though he was known on occasion to petulantly instruct nearby colleagues to be quiet.

Max Volmer
Max Volmer (3 May 1885 in Hilden – 3 June 1965 in Potsdam) was a German physical chemist, who made important contributions in electrochemistry, in particular on electrode kinetics. He co-developed the Butler-Volmer equation.
Volmer held the chair and directorship of the Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry Institute of the Technische Hochschule Berlin, in Berlin-Charlottenburg. After World War II, he went to the Soviet Union, where he headed a design bureau for the production of heavy water. Upon his return to East Germany ten years later, he became a professor at the Humboldt University of Berlin and was president of the East German Academy of Sciences.

Markus Theory
A theory originally developed by Rudolph A. Marcus, starting in 1956, to explain the rates of electron transfer reactions – the rate at which an electron can move or hop from one chemical species (called the electron donor) to another (called the electron acceptor).
It was originally formulated to address outer sphere electron transfer reactions, in which the two chemical species aren't directly bonded to each other, but it was also extended to inner sphere electron transfer reactions, in which the two chemical species are attached by a chemical bridge, by Noel S. Hush (Hush's formulation is known as Marcus-Hush theory).
Marcus received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1992 for this theory.

tNa+ = tClO4- = 0.485
tCu(II) = 0.0097; tCu(I) = 0.00485; tCl-=0.0146

Electrical Double Layer The concept and model of the double layer arose in the work of
von Helmholtz (1853) on the interfaces of colloidal suspensions and was subsequently extended to surfaces of metal electrodes by Gouy, Chapman, and Stern, and later in the notable work of Grahame around 1947.
Helmholtz envisaged a capacitor-like separation of anionic and
cationic charges across the interface of colloidal particles with an electrolyte. For electrode interfaces with an electrolyte solution, this concept was extended to model the separation of "electronic" charges residing at the metal electrode surfaces (manifested as an excess of negative charge densities under negative polarization with respect to the electrolyte solution or as a deficiency of electron charge density under positive polarization), depending in each case, on the corresponding potential difference between the electrode and the solution boundary at the electrode. For zero net charge, the corresponding potential is referred to as the "potential of zero charge (PZC)".

Freundlich Isotherm The Freundlich Adsorption Isotherm is a curve relating
the concentration of a solute on the surface of an adsorbent, to the concentration of the solute in the liquid with which it is in contact.
The Freundlich Adsorption Isotherm is mathematically expressed as
where
x = mass of adsorbate m = mass of adsorbent p = Equilibrium pressure of adsorbate C = Equilibrium concentration of adsorbate in solution.
K and 1/n are constants for a given adsorbate and adsorbent at a particular temperature.
