1
Q
leo the lion goes ger
A
loses electrons = oxidation
gains electrons = reduction
2
Q
an ox red cat
A
anode = oxidation
cathode = reduction
3
Q
if ΔE_cell° > 0
A
forward reaction is spontaneous and vice versa
4
Q
if standard reduction potential is positive
A
more easily reduced
5
Q
if standard potential is negative
A
more easily oxidized
6
Q
ΔE_cell°= E_right° - E_left°
A
if ΔE°> 0 than RHS -reduction and LHS - oxidation
if ΔE° <0, spontaneous reaction is the reverse reaction
