Abstract

In analogy to galvanic cells with liquid electrolytes, those with solid electrolytes consist of at least two electrodes separated by an electrolyte, which in this case is a solid ionic conductor. In a simple case both electrodes and the electrolyte consist of powdered chemical compounds which have been pressed to pellets; these, in turn, are pressed together and provided with two leads. Thermodynamic investigations involving such galvanic cells with solid electrolytes permit the determination of a) Gibbs reaction energies, b) chemical potentials, activities or partial pressures, c) reaction enthalpies and reaction entropies obtained from investigations of temperature dependencies
