Shows how the common, everyday battery works and the basic principles involved with it. Illustrates the terminology and processes of electrochemical reactions, how half-cell potentials can be determined, and how electrochemistry is at work in the commercial Leclanche cell, as well as the processes of corrosion and electrolysis.

"This book presents a balance of theoretical considerations and practical problem solving of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. This book incorporates the results of the last two decades of research on the theories and applications of impedance spectroscopy, including more detailed reviews of the impedance methods applications in industrial colloids, biomedical sensors and devices, and supercapacitive polymeric films. The book covers all of the...
