Electrochemistry & Cell Design

The science of electron transfer — galvanic cells, electrolysis, battery discharge curves, and impedance analysis that power modern energy storage and corrosion prevention.

Electrochemistry governs every battery in your phone, every fuel cell in a spacecraft, and every rusting bridge on the highway. At its core, it studies how chemical energy converts to electrical energy (and back) through redox reactions at electrode surfaces. The Nernst equation predicts cell voltage under non-standard conditions, while Faraday's laws quantify mass changes during electrolysis.

These simulations let you adjust electrode potentials, sweep voltages in cyclic voltammetry, watch battery discharge curves evolve, and explore impedance spectra — all animated in real time so you can build intuition for the electrochemical systems that define modern technology.
