| 1. | The zinc sulfate is the electrolyte in that half cell.
|
| 2. | This allows the potential of the other half cell to be determined.
|
| 3. | The reference half cell consists of a redox standard of known potential.
|
| 4. | The reference electrode is a half cell with a known reduction potential.
|
| 5. | The two half cells each support one half of the reactions described above.
|
| 6. | The half cell has an open front and a bench at the back.
|
| 7. | Similarly to a galvanic cell, electrolytic cells usually consist of two half cells.
|
| 8. | :This looks like a half cell reation.
|
| 9. | The reference electrode forms the other half cell,
|
| 10. | The calomel electrode is used to work out the electrode potential of half cells.
