4 ELECTRICITY AND CHEMISTRY
1. Electrolytic cell
• Electrolytic cell is the cell where electrolysis takes place.
• Electrolysis is the process of breaking down an ionic compound,
molten or in aqueous solution, by the passage of electricity
(Electro = electricity, lysis = break down)
• Electrolyte is the molten or aqueous ionic compound which
undergoes electrolysis. This is because ions are free to move in
these states.

• Electrodes are the pieces of carbon or metal which are placed in
the electrolyte and connected to a DC power source.
• PANIC (Positive is Anode, Negative is Cathode).

4 ELECTRICITY AND CHEMISTRY
2. Electrolysis
• In external circuit, electrons flow from positive terminal to
negative terminal of battery.
• Within the electrolyte, the flow of ions towards the electrodes
constitutes the flow of electric current.
• Anions go to Anode, while Cations go to Cathode.

• Anions give up electrons and oxidised at anode. Thus, non-
metals are discharged and formed.

5. Simple electrochemical cell (Electric / Galvanic / Voltaic)
• Simple cell is a device that converts chemical energy into
electrical energy.
It is made by placing two different metals in contact with an
electrolyte.
The more reactive metal (negative) would donate electrons to the
less reactive metal (positive).

Example
• Zn and Cu cell
Zn would give electrons to Cu2+
• Mg and Cu cell
Mg would give electron to Cu2+

• The potential difference produced can be measured using a
voltmeter.
• The amount of electrical energy produced is determined by how
far apart the metals in the reactivity series.

5 CHEMICAL ENERGETICS
1. Energy changes
• Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can change from
one form to another.
• All chemical reaction involves energy change.
• This is because it involves bond breaking before new bonds can
be formed.

Heng Joe Shen (DIMENSION HIGH SCHOOL)


Slide 58
5 CHEMICAL ENERGETICS
2. Exothermic reaction
• Exothermic reaction is reaction that gives out heat to the
surrounding.
• Since the energy out is more than energy in, there is net energy
going out.
• The energy absorbed for bond breaking is less than the energy
absorbed in bond making.
• Temperature of the reaction mixture rises
• Examples: Dissolving anhydrous salts, neutralisation, diluting
concentrated acids, combustion, corrosion of metals and
respiration

3. Endothermic reaction
• Endothermic reaction is reaction that absorbs heat from the
surrounding.
• Since the energy out is less than energy in, there is net energy
going in.
• The energy released for bond breaking is more than the energy
absorbed in bond making.
• Temperature of the mixture falls.
• Examples: Dissolving certain ionic compound in water, thermal
decomposition, photosynthesis and action of light on silver
bromide in photographic film.

5 CHEMICAL ENERGETICS
4. Enthalpy change, ∆H
• Enthalpy change is the difference in energy content of the
reactants and products.
The unit is kJ or kJ/mol.
• ∆H = energy in to break bonds – energy out to make bonds
∆H = total energy in the product – total energy in the reactant
• Energy level diagram shows the energy changes in a reaction.

Heng Joe Shen (DIMENSION HIGH SCHOOL)


Slide 63
5 CHEMICAL ENERGETICS
5. Bonds
• Bond breaking requires energy being absorbed from surrounding.
Bond breaking is endothermic.
• Bond making requires energy being released to the surrounding.
Bond making is exothermic.
• In chemical reactions, both bond breaking (in reactants) and bond
making (to form products) occurs during chemical reactions.
• In exothermic reaction, ∆H bond breaking < ∆H bond forming.
• In endothermic reaction, ∆H bond breaking > ∆H bond forming.

1. Redox (= Reduction + Oxidation)
• Redox reaction is a chemical reaction which involves the
oxidation of a substance and reduction of another substance.
• Both oxidation and reduction always take place together.
• Oxidation is the process where a substance increases its
oxidation state after a reaction. There is also a gain of oxygen,
loses in hydrogen or loses in electrons.
• Reduction is the process where a substance decreases its
oxidation state after a reaction. There is also loses in oxygen,
gain of hydrogen or gain of electrons.
• Just like acid and alkali, the traditional concept is that acid
always produce H+ ions and alkali produces OH– ions.
• You must have heard about the word “oxidized” before. For
example, the apple has been oxidized.

if it existed as an ion in a compound e.g. Na2O (Na = +1, O = –2)
• This is true even if the atom is covalently bonded e.g. H2O

Exception for H with group I, NaH (Na = +1, H = – 1)
Exception O in H2O2. (H = +1, O = –1)

• Oxidising agent is a substance that causes another substance to
be oxidised by giving oxygen, removing hydrogen or accepting
electrons. The agent is reduced at the end of reaction.
• Reducing agent is a substance that causes another substance to
be reduced by removing oxygen, giving hydrogen or donating
electrons. The agent is oxidised at the end of reaction.
• Test for oxidising agent: Add aqueous potassium iodide, KI to
the unknown solution. A brown solution is formed where iodide
is oxidised to iodine.

ii) It is not used up during the reaction. It may change in physical
appearance, but the total amount would remain the same.

• Catalyst and reactant are both same state (aqueous)

• Catalyst provides an alternative pathway for the reaction to
proceed.
• The catalyzed reaction has a lower level of activation energy.
• As a result, more particles possess the energy equal to or greater

12. Haber process by Fritz Haber
• He is considered a hero and villain
• Haber process is used to produce ammonia. After World War II,
human population increases drastically, there is no enough food
to feed everyone.
• In order to increase the agricultural production, fertiliser is
required to speed up the reaction. Synthetic fertiliser can be used
directly and mass manufacture in 1980.
• Ammonia is the main reactant to produce fertiliser. Plants need
nitrogen to grow (human needs nitrogen to grow). However,
nitrogen in the air cannot be absorbed directly. Human consume
nitrogen in the forms of protein (e.g. fish, beans), plants consume
nitrogen in the form of ammonium, NH4+.

Arrhenius theory of dissociation:
i) Acids is compound that produces hydrogen ions, H+ in water.
• Alkali is compound that produce hydroxide ions, OH– in
water. Thus, H+ + OH– → H2O (l). From here, we know that
all acids react with alkali.
• That is why we can measure the strength of an acid using pH
or pOH.
ii) However, later on, we discover that some acids or alkali that
do not produce H+ or OH–.
• Example, Ammonia NH3 (aq). However, it can reacts with
acid. NH3 + HCl → NH4Cl or CaO + HCl → CaCl2 + H2O
• First, there are soluble base (alkali) and insoluble base.
• Second, the concept has shift from giving H+ ions to giving
proton. Acid is proton donor and base is proton receiver.

Not an acid – CH4, NH3
When HCl is dissolved in organic solvent or in gaseous state, it

• Titration is a volumetric analysis of reaction to determine
concentration of a solution
• Titrant is solution of known concentration while analyte is the

• Equivalence point is the point in titration at which the amount
of titrant added is just enough to completely neutralize the
analyte solution.
• Endpoint is the point at which the indicator changes colour in an
acid-base titration.
• Firstly, a solution of known concentration (titrant) is placed in
the burette. Another solution of unknown concentration is
measured using pipette and placed in the conical flask. An

7 ACIDS, BASES AND SALTS
8. Salts
• Salt is an ionic compound formed when hydrogen ion in acid is
replaced by metallic ion or an ammonium ion.
• Hydrated salt can be heated to produce anhydrous salt and
water.
• It is made up of two parts: Cation and anion.
The cation is metallic ion or ammonium ion that comes from
base.
The anion is non-metallic ion that comes from acid.

9. Preparation of salts
• Method 1 (soluble salt): Add acid to metal / insoluble base or
carbonate
• This method is suitable for moderately reactive metals.
Some metals reacts too violently with acid (e.g. Na, K and Ca)
while some metals do not react with acid (e.g. Cu and Ag).

• Acid + insoluble base
• Acid + carbonate
