Introduction

Prepare to unlock the mysteries of electrochemistry with these easy-to-remember mnemonics that will simplify concepts such as cell potentials, electrodes, and redox reactions.Mnemonics: Electrochemistry | Chemistry Class 12 - NEET

Reactivity Series

Mnemonic: "King's Sister Came Marching And Zipped Into Tiny Little Hut, Caught Stealing Gold."

  • King's : Potassium (K)
  • Sister : Sodium (Na)
  • Came : Calcium (Ca)
  • Marching : Magnesium (Mg)
  • And : Aluminium (Al)
  • Zipped : Zinc (Zn)
  • Into : Iron (Fe)
  • Tiny: Tin (Sn)
  • Little: Lead (Pb)
  • Hut: Hydrogen (H)
  • Caught: Copper (Cu)
  • Stealing: Silver (Ag)
  • Gold: Gold (Au)

Oxidation and Reduction

Mnemonic: "LEO the LION says GER."

  • LEO: Loss of Electrons = Oxidation
  • LION: Loss Increases Oxidation Number
  • GER: Gain of Electrons = ReductionMnemonics: Electrochemistry | Chemistry Class 12 - NEET

Cation 

Mnemonic: "Cats Are Pawsitive."

  • Cats : Cation
  • Pawsitive.: Indicates the positive charge of the cation

Cations are positively charged ions that move towards the cathode during electrolysis.
