Love the video except for one part... If you hook a voltmeter up to the wires, current does NOT travel through a voltmeter. It becomes more complicated than you show here.
@georgeme01 It was not my intention to do an introductory course in physics...it doesn't matter HOW the voltmeter works in this video, it's just THAT it works as a load on the current. :)
@richsocaplaya It's all part of the schtick. People are more likely to engage with a teacher if that teacher demonstrates an enthusiasm for their subject matter. I happen to love chemistry...wasn't my first choice, I adore Earth Science beyond the telling of it, but when I was young and chose my college major, I made up my mind that I didn't want to teach high school freshmen. Isn't that terrible????
@MarkRosengarten huh =/ the title says " Table of Selected Standard Electrode Potentials" I probably didn't change the signs because teh reaction on the table says Zn2+ + 2e- -> Zn -0.76 . so if i reverse teh equation then i probably have to change teh sign as well
Oh you wonderful teacher you! You clarified all the doubts I had on voltaic cells. +1 to you sir, and never stop making these awesome vids!

That was a great introductory video. Thanks for clearing up some murky parts of galvanic cells. Oh, and you're a nut. But in a good way, of course.

my table says Zn has a -0.76 electrical potential not a + ??
XxAngelShinn 1 year ago
@XxAngelShinn Sounds like you have an OXIDATION potentials table. Is the potential for Ag -0.80? If so, that's what's happening.
