Abstract

Abstract : The standard potential of a lithium metal electrode can fluctuate by over 0.5 V in different organic solvents, and is correlated to the modified donor number by the entropy of fusion of the solvents. Abstract : The standard potential of a lithium metal electrode versus the standard hydrogen electrode was calculated by constructing the thermodynamic cycle in a hypothetical electrochemical cell with a dual-phase electrolyte. It is demonstrated that the standard potential of the lithium metal electrode can fluctuate over 0.5 V in different organic solvents, and is correlated to the modified donor number by the entropy of fusion of the solvents.
