Learning Objectives

By the end of this section, you will be able to:

Relate cell potentials to free energy changes

Use the Nernst equation to determine cell potentials at nonstandard conditions

Perform calculations that involve converting between cell potentials, free energy changes, and equilibrium constants

We will now extend electrochemistry by determining the relationship between E

and the thermodynamics quantities such as ΔG° (Gibbs free energy) and K (the equilibrium constant). In galvanic cells, chemical energy is converted into
