Things to know

Anode: Gaining of electrons

Cathode: Losing of electrons

Redox: Another way to say a Reduction-Oxidation

Half-cell: Structure that contains a conductive electrode and a surrounding conductive electrolyte

Half-reaction: Oxidation or reduction part of a redox reaction

Cell Potential: Voltage of the cell

Reduction Potential: Measure of the tendency of a chemical species to acquire or lose electrons to an electrode

Salt Bridge: Link between anode and cathode half cells within a electrochemical cell
