Product Information

Aligned with AP Chemistry Lab #20


The electrochemical series is created by arranging various redox equilibria in order of their standard electrode potentials, otherwise known as redox potentials. When a strip of metal, or an electrode int he case of this activity, is placed in water, the metal has a tendency to go into solution as ions with a simultaneous build-up of electrons on the metal strip. This process produces an electrical potential difference between the metal and solution which is called an electrode potential, E°. The most negative E° values are placed at the top of the electrochemical series, and the most positive at the bottom. Includes materials for 15 setups.
