Thermodynamic considerations of same-metal electrodes in an asymmetric cell
Abstract An electrochemical cell contains three open thermodynamic systems that, in dynamic equilibrium, equalize their electrochemical potentials with that of their surrounding by forming an electric-double-layer-capacitor at the interface of the electrolyte with each of the two electrodes. Since t...
