Introduction to Electrochemistry

To start off the Winter Quarter, we are going to be having our first bi-weekly meeting next Wednesday (1/24/2018) from 4:00 to 5:00 pm. The location is tentatively MolES 315.
We will be piloting our “Introduction to Electrochemistry” talk, led by our members Yanbo Qi and Caitlin Parke. In this meeting, we will be discussing the basic principles of electrochemical reactions, cells, thermodynamics, and kinetics. This talk is not meant to teach you everything there is, but rather a brief overview of major concepts that hopefully will give you ideas of where to start diving more in depth on your own time. I hope to get proper feedback and further questions after this session to see if we want to have a second talk about concepts that remained confusing, or if there was something that people wanted to go more in depth in.
As always, if you have any questions, problems, or want to provide feedback, you can always reach me at this address. Hope to see you all there!

2016 Summer Book Series: Electrochemical Methods

As a way to bring students, faculty, and postdocs together to learn more about electrochemistry, ECS@UW has started a summer book reading series. This summer we are meeting at 10 AM at HUB 307 on Thursday’s each week and working our way through Bard and Faulkner‘s Electrochemical Methods. For information on where we will be meeting or what chapter we are on, follow ECS@UW on Twitter or like us on Facebook or email us at essc@uw.edu. Below you can find the notes (and example problems) for each of the chapters as we cover them.
