Electrochemical cell

November 3, 2023 by DeepakRajput

An electrochemical cell in potentiometry consists of two main components: an indicator electrode (working electrode) and a reference electrode. These components work together to measure the electrical potential (voltage) difference between them in the presence of an analyte in the sample solution. Here’s a brief overview of the components and their roles in the electrochemical … Read more

Potentiometry

November 3, 2023 by DeepakRajput

Analytical chemists and electrochemists widely use the potentiometry technique to measure the electrical potential (voltage) of an electrochemical cell, which often involves an indicator electrode, a reference electrode, and a sample solution. They apply this technique for various purposes in analytical chemistry and electrochemistry. Principle Potentiometry is based on the Nernst equation, which relates an … Read more
