Electrolytic Conductance

  • Chapter
Electrochemistry

Abstract

With this chapter we begin consideration of experiments where current passes through an electrochemical cell. We will focus first on the measurement of the conductance of an electrolyte solution under conditions where the electrode-solution interface can be ignored. The interpretation of conductance data will lead to consideration of the contributions of individual ions to solution conductance and to conductance as a transport property related to diffusion. Finally we will consider membrane and liquid junction potentials which arise because of differences in ion transport rates.
