Electrochemical measurements in respect of thermodynamics, kinetics and analysis is widely recognized. This course will lay basics of electrochemistry but also considers how to go about designing, explaining and interpreting electrochemical experiments centered around various forms of electrochemical measurements, voltammetry (cyclic, microelectrode, hydrodynamic, etc.) and amperometry.
