1 56 Practical Examples of Galvanic Cells There are many practical examples of galvanic cells in use in our everyday lives. We are familiar with batteries of all types. One of the most common is the lead-acid battery, which has the capability of delivering enough energy (measured in total charge or ampere-hours) to start an automobile. The electrodes are Pb(s), and PbO 2 (s). The supporting electrolyte is sulfuric acid. Here are the important reactions: Pb(s) + HSO 4 - PbSO 4 (s) + H + + 2e - lead is oxidized from the 0 to the +2 state PbO 2 (s) + HSO H + + 2e - PbSO 4 (s) +2H 2 O lead is reduced from the +4 to the +2 state Net reaction: Pb(s) + PbO 2 (s) + 2H + + 2HSO 4-2PbSO 4 (s) + 2H 2 O The cell voltage for a lead acid battery is 2 volts, so six cells must be connected in parallel to achieve the 12v operation required in automobiles. Under ordinary conditions, current flows in the external circuit from the anode (negative electrode) to the cathode (positive electrode). To charge the battery, a potential of opposite polarity is applied acrosse the terminals, and reactions at each electrode are reversed. This battery can be recharged because the reaction products adhere to the electrodes. Note that as the battery discharges, the concentration of the sulfuric acid electrolyte decreases. The density of concentrated H 2 SO 4 is 1.28 g/cm 3, and the density of H 2 O is 1.00 g/cm 3, so a measurement of the density of the electrolyte gives a measure of how charged the battery is. Over the long haul, the electrodes degrade sulfate whiskers eventually short out the terminals, and the battery is sulfated, and cannot be recharged. Why does battery performance degrade with temperature? Contrary to intuition, the temperature dependence of the cell potential is very small. The voltage does not decrease significantly. The real reason for the poor behavior of the battery at low temperature is the following: when the battery discharges, H + ions must move toward the cathode, SO 4 2- ions move toward both
2 57 electrodes. The viscosity of the H 2 SO 4 electrolyte increases enough to reduce the mobilities of the ions in solution. The effect is much larger for HSO 4 -. A much smaller current can flow through the battery because of this reduction in mobility. Dry cells One of the most common examples of a battery is the alkaline dry cell, sometimes called a Leclanché cell Zn Zn e - 2NH MnO 2 + 2e - Mn 2 O 3 + 2NH 3 + H 2 O The cell potential is 1.5 volts. Here s an old exam question: In a typical Leclanché cell, 30 g of MnO 2 is combined with an excess of Zn, NH 4 +, graphite, and NH 4 Cl electrolyte. In driving an ipod, the cell was operated at 100 ma until all of the MnO 2 in the cell was consumed. Calculate how long current would flow. Assume the cell potential remains constant. Solution: What determines the battery lifetime? The MnO 2 provides charge. 30 grams of MnO 2 is (30/55) moles. Each mole of MnO 2 gives one mole of electrons. So, the MnO 2 is capable of providing (30/55)moles Coulombs per mole of electrons = Coulombs The ipod is using current at the rate of 100 ma 10-3 amps/ma = amps = Coulombs per second. Q = it. Q, the total charge, is Coulombs. Time = Q/i = Coulombs/0.100 Coulombs sec -1 = sec. There are 3600 seconds in an hour, so the battery will last ( )/( ) = 147 hours, a little less than a week of continuous play.
3 58 A couple of other examples: Calculator batteries: Zn + HgO ZnO + Hg and Zn + Ag 2 O ZnO + 2Ag High energy density rechargeable batteries: The lithium ion battery is one of the most popular batteries for computer operations: Fuel Cells Li + 2MnO 2 Li 2 O + Mn 2 O 3 Hybrid vehicles like the Toyota Prius use a rechargeable battery known as a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery. Anode reaction: MH + OH - M + H 2 O + e - -E anode = v The typical metal hydride compound is LaNi 5 H 6 Cathode reaction: NiOOH + H 2 O + e - Ni(OH) 2 + OH - E cathode = 0.52 The electrolyte in such a cell is 6M KOH. One final example of galvanic cell operation is that of the fuel cell. Consider the following reactions: Cathode reaction: ½O 2 (g) + 2H+ + 2e - H 2 O E cathode = v Anode reaction: H 2 (g) 2H + +2e - E anode = 0.00 v Net: H 2 (g)+ ½O 2 (g) H 2 O E cell = volts Note that this is a combustion reaction. That is why we call the electrochemical representation of this reaction a fuel cell, as we noted a couple of lectures ago. The diagram on the left shows how an H 2 /O 2 fuel cell operates. The electrolyte is molten KOH, so operating conditions are severe. work G 237 Efficiency = = = = heat H 286 Note that this efficiency is much larger than Carnot
4 59 Electrolysis: The process of electrolysis is the opposite of galvanic cell operation. In such a system, we attempt to achieve conditions that are essentially the reverse of galvanic cell operation. We have to supply an external voltage to make this energetically unfavorable process occur. Why would we want to carry out electrolysis? The principal reason for carrying out electrolysis is to produce desirable materials. In the laboratory, electrolysis of water produces lab scale amounts of hydrogen and oxygen. Industrially, electrolysis can be used to produce high purity copper. Electrolysis of brine (concentrated alkali halide solutions like NaCl) can be used to produce alkali metals and halogens. This last process is called the Chloralkali process. Let s consider electrolysis of water. An apparatus like the following diagram is often used. First, let s consider electrolysis in water. Here are the possible reduction reactions: ½O 2 (g) + 2H + + 2e - H 2 O E = H + + 2e - H 2 (g) E = In electrolysis, we take the reaction with the lower reduction potential and let that reaction as written be the cathode reaction. The reaction with the higher reduction potential will be forced to run in the opposite direction by the application of an external voltage. So, in electrolysis in water, we have the following reactions: Cathode reaction: 2H + + 2e - H 2 (g) E cathode = v Anode reaction: H 2 O ½O 2 (g) + 2H + + 2e - -E anode = v So, E cell = E cathode -E anode = volts. The only time a negative cell potential makes sense is in electrolysis, in which an external potential at least as large as the negative of the cell potential is applied to overcome the negative cell potential. The way we make these reactions run is to apply an external voltage of magnitude volts or higher. Think of electrolysis this way: the electrons given off at the anode (where O 2 is made) are pushed uphill in energy to the cathode, where H + accepts them and makes H 2 gas. This is all pretty simple, and is summarized by the following energy diagram.
5 60 2H + + 2e - H 2 (g) 0.00 v Applied voltage v v H 2 O ½O 2 (g) + 2H + + 2e - Net: H 2 O H 2 (g) + ½ O 2 (g) Reduction still takes place at the cathode and oxidation still takes place at the anode. The power supply provides the driving force to push the electrons formed at the anode uphill in energy to the cathode. This electron flow occurs through the solution. It is pretty simple to calculate the amount of material produced by electrolysis from the current and the time. Suppose you run a current of 1 ampere (1 Coulomb per sec) for 30 minutes. Total charge Q = (1 Coulomb sec -1 )(30)(60)sec = 1800 Coulombs Moles of electrons passed = 1800 Coulomb /96485 Coulombs mol -1 ) = moles Moles of H 2 = moles electrons 1 mole H 2 / 2 moles electrons = moles Mass of H 2 = moles 2 grams /mol = grams. Volume of H 2 at STP = moles cm 3 /mol = 209 cm 3 Moles of O 2 = moles electrons 1 mole O 2 / 4 moles electrons = moles Mass of O 2 = moles 32 grams /mol = grams. Volume of O 2 at STP = moles cm 3 /mol = 105 cm 3 So, the preceding experiment was done with a normal H 2 electrode, in which [H + ] = 1.00 M., i.e., ph = 0.00.
