Focus will be given on following electrochemical aspects and topics:
• Ionic conductors
• Electrode processes
• Electrode potentials
• Thermodynamics of electrochemical reactions
• Kinetics of electrochemical reactions
• Mass transfer via migration and diffusion
• Voltammetry and its applications
• Electrochemical impedance and its applications
