This program contrasts energy conversions in electrolytic and galvanic cells and explores electroplating applications of electrolytic cells, including copper electro-refining. It discusses the concept of competition at electrodes and looks at the process of anodizing. The program explains Faraday’s laws of electrolysis and teaches how to perform calculations using Faraday's laws and present practical applications.
