  2. Energy conversion efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_conversion_efficiency

    For example, an ideal fuel cell operating at a temperature of 25 °C having gaseous hydrogen and gaseous oxygen as inputs and liquid water as the output could produce a theoretical maximum amount of electrical energy of 237.129 kJ (0.06587 kWh) per gram mol (18.0154 gram) of water produced and would require 48.701 kJ (0.01353 kWh) per gram mol ...

  3. Electrochemical cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_cell

    An electrolytic cell is an electrochemical cell in which applied electrical energy drives a non-spontaneous redox reaction. [5] A modern electrolytic cell consisting of two half reactions, two electrodes, a salt bridge, voltmeter, and a battery. They are often used to decompose chemical compounds, in a process called electrolysis.

  4. Leclanché cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leclanché_cell

    A 1919 illustration of a Leclanché cell. The Leclanché cell is a battery invented and patented by the French scientist Georges Leclanché in 1866. [1] [2] [3] The battery contained a conducting solution (electrolyte) of ammonium chloride, a cathode (positive terminal) of carbon, a depolarizer of manganese dioxide (oxidizer), and an anode (negative terminal) of zinc (reductant).

  5. Heat transfer physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_energy_transfer

    The SET rate follows the inverse of the fourth power of the distance [2] = where ⁠ ⁠ is the donor emission lifetime; ⁠ ⁠ is the distance between donor-acceptor; ⁠ ⁠ is the distance at which SET efficiency decreases to 50% (i.e., equal probability of energy transfer and spontaneous emission).

  7. Electrochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemistry

    Electrical energy = E cell Q ele,trans. Q ele,trans is the cell current integrated over time and measured in coulombs (C); it can also be determined by multiplying the total number n e of electrons transferred (measured in moles) times Faraday's constant (F). The emf of the cell at zero current is the maximum possible emf.

  8. Electron transport chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_transport_chain

    An electron transport chain (ETC [1]) is a series of protein complexes and other molecules which transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox reactions (both reduction and oxidation occurring simultaneously) and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons (H + ions) across a membrane.

  9. Energy transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_transformation

    Fire is an example of energy transformation Energy transformation using Energy Systems Language. Energy transformation, also known as energy conversion, is the process of changing energy from one form to another. [1] In physics, energy is a quantity that provides the capacity to perform work (e.g. lifting an object) or provides heat.
