Keywords: analytical chemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, Nernst equation and cell potential, sensors

Derived from: Tentative learning design Sensors & Process Control

Description:

This is as 10 ECTS course in Analytical chemistry where I teach a part on Electroanalytical chemistry. Here as the end goal the students should be able to understand, explain and compare different electrodes used in analytical chemistry, either to measure the pH, dissolved ions, oxygen or simply the redox potential of the solution

Intended Learning Outcomes:

write the redox reactions
write Nernst half-cell potential equations
use Nernst equations to calculate redox and cell potentials
critically review work of peers
