Fundamentals of electrochemistry book, 2nd edition by V.S. Bagotsky
preface of This book
Two very important fields of natural
science—chemistry and the science of electricity— matured and grew vigorously
during the first half of the nineteenth century. Electrochemistry developed
simultaneously. From the very beginning, electrochemistry was not merely a
peripheral field but evolved with an important degree of independence, and it
also left very significant marks on the development of chemistry and of the
theory of electricity.
Today, electrochemistry is a
rigorous science concerned with the quantitative relations among the chemical,
surface, and electrical properties of systems. Electrochemistry has strong
links to many other fields of science. Electrochemical concepts proved
particularly fruitful for studying and interpreting a number of very important
biological processes
This book seeks essentially to
provide a rigorous, yet lucid and comprehensible outline of the basic concepts
(phenomena, processes, and laws) that form the subject matter of modern theoretical
and applied electrochemistry. Particular attention is given to electrochemical problems
of fundamental significance, yet those often treated in an obscure or even
incorrect way in monographs and texts. Among these problems are some, that
appear elementary at first glance, such as the mechanism of current flow in
electrolyte solutions, the nature of electrode potentials, and the values of
the transport numbers in diffusion layers.
