These devices are also called galvanic cells or voltaic | cells, after the names of Luigi Galvani (1780) and Alessandro Volta (1800) who were the ( first to perform experiments on the conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy. How exactly the chemical energy of a redox reaction is converted into electrical energy can be seen from the following example: Redox reaction between Zn and CuSOs. The reaction is represented as: Zn(s) + CuSO«(aq) + ZnSO«(aq) + Cu(s). It may also be written in ionic form as: Zn + Cu* — Zn®* + Cu, The reaction essentially comprises of sCw two half reactions: one for reduction and the other for oxidation. Zn(s) > Zn**(aq) + 2e- (aq) + 2e- —+ Cu(s) Thus, Zn is oxidized to Zn** in the oxidation half reaction and Cutis reduced to Cu in the reduction half reaction. The overall reaction can be obtained by adding the two half reactions. a°m NaCl = 126.4 Sem®mol"' HCl = 426.1 S.cm’mot!
