Big Ideas
- Oxidation and reduction are paired chemical reactions in which electrons are transferred from one substance to another in a predictable way.
- The control and applications of oxidation and reduction reactions have significant implications for industry, health and safety, and the environment.
By the end of the course, students will be expected to:
- Analyze technologies and processes relating to electrochemistry, and their implications for society, health and safety, and the environment.
- Investigate oxidation-reduction reactions using a galvanic cell, and analyze electrochemical reactions in qualitative and quantitative terms.
- Demonstrate an understanding of the principles of oxidation-reduction reactions and the many practical applications of electrochemistry.
