The branch of chemistry that studies chemical reactions caused by electricity or that produce electricity.
From electro- (electricity) + chemistry. The field was formalized in the 18th-19th centuries as scientists discovered that electricity could cause chemical changes and vice versa.
Electrochemistry connects two of nature's most fundamental forces—electricity and chemistry—and this connection powers everything from the batteries in your phone to the nervous system in your brain.
