Electrochemistry

Electrochemistry is the branch of chemical science where we study the flow of electricity through electrolyte solution or metallic conductor by the movement of electrons. Acids bases and salts in a state of solution or fused state conduct electricity and are called electrolytes.

Unlike metallic conductors, electrolytes conduct electricity by changed of particles in matter. Such transfer of matter leads to the decomposition of at points where electricity enters and leaves the electrolytes. In electrochemistry, the decomposition of electrolytes due to the passage of electricity is called electrolysis. In this part of learning chemistry, we discuss different topics related to electrochemistry, some are given below
