Skills you will learn
What are the course deliverables?
  • Describe key concepts of acid-base chemistry and equilibrium reactions involving acids and bases
  • Understand the significance of electrochemistry, how it relates to other fields of science, and how it is applied in real life
  • Understand what it means for an element to be "oxidized" or "reduced"
  • Identify the differences in efficiency between renewable primary energy from electrochemical energy sources with primarily fossil fuel-based energy ones
  • Describe the reactions occurring in an electrochemical (voltaic) cell
  • Identify how different types of batteries differ in their energy storage efficiency
More about this course
  • The discipline of electrochemistry is not new, but it has regained prominence due to the emergence of energy production, energy storage, and technological innovations driven by both science and public policy
  • In this course, you will explore key concepts of acid-base reactions and their relation to chemical equilibrium
  • You will learn the significance of electrochemistry, understanding how electrical, chemical, and mechanical energy are linked
  • By the end of the course, you will be able to identify differences in efficiencies between renewable energy sources and fossil fuel-based ones, including which battery types are leading the transition away from fossil fuels
