19th November 2014 Dear Parent/ Carer, RE: Year 8 End of term
... Elements can join together to make compounds. A compound contains two or more elements joined together. The name of the compound tells you the elements that are in it. Compounds made from two elements always have a name which ends in ‘-ide’. ...

Like a real lightning the charges jump across the separation. Notice that higher up the rods are pulled together because there they are more flexible. T ...

... those. During a lecture in the year 1819, Hans Oersted had a compass sitting next to a wire. When Oersted completed the circuit by connecting the wire to a battery, the direction that the needle was pointing changed. This indicated that the electricity flowing through the wire had created a magnetic ...

History of electrochemistry
Electrochemistry, a branch of chemistry, went through several changes during its evolution from early principles related to magnets in the early 16th and 17th centuries, to complex theories involving conductivity, electric charge and mathematical methods. The term electrochemistry was used to describe electrical phenomena in the late 19th and 20th centuries. In recent decades, electrochemistry has become an area of current research, including research in batteries and fuel cells, preventing corrosion of metals, the use of electrochemical cells to remove refractory organics and similar contaminants in wastewater electrocoagulation and improving techniques in refining chemicals with electrolysis and electrophoresis.
