LibreTexts Chemistry: Electrochemical Analytical Methods
Description
There are a wide variety of analytical methods that are based on the use of electrochemical reactions or processes. Only a subset of all the electrochemical methods will be discussed herein. The simplest electrochemical cell has two electrodes. One of them is sensitive toward the analyte and is referred to as either the working or indicator electrode. The second electrode is referred to as the counter or reference electrode, with the potential of the working electrode measured relative to it.
