What is electrogravimetry?
Draw a typical electrolytic cell, label all reacting species and electrodes.
Draw a typical voltaic cell, label all reacting species and electrodes.
*HINT Voltaic cell is driven by a spontaneous reaction while electrolytic cell needs external electric energy
Electrogravimetry is the menthod used to separate and quantify the ions of a substance, usully a metal. In this process, the analyte solution is electrolyzed . Electro checmical reduction causes the analyte to be deposited on the cathode.
Typical Electrolytic cell:
Typical Voltaic cell:
