(chemistry, physics) an electrode with a stable and accurately known electrode potential

(physics, chemistry) An electrode with a standard electrode potential of zero; used as a standard against which other electrodes are measured.

an electrode potential measured under standard conditions; a temperature or 298K, 1 atmosphere pressure and at 1 mole of the activity of redox participants of the half-reaction.

(chemistry) Any of the group of metallic elements that have an incomplete inner (d) electron shell, having multiple valencies and forming coloured compounds and stable complex ions; the elements from scandium through copper, and those lying below them in the periodic table.

the terminal through which electric current passes between metallic and nonmetallic parts of an electric circuit / a collector or emitter of electric charge in a semiconducting device

(chemistry) Any of a group of seventeen soft, lustrous, sometimes magnetic metals that form trivalent salts; they include the lanthanides plus yttrium, scandium, thorium and sometimes zirconium.

(chemistry) A systematic name for an element, derived from the digits of its atomic number to which the suffix -(i)um is appended; normally only used for transuranic elements before or for a short period after they have been created, after which they will be given a non-systematic name.

(physics) of, relating to, or produced by electrostatics or static electricity

(physics) the branch of physics that deals with static electricity; that is, with the force exerted by an unchanging electric field upon a charged object

An electric charge that has built up on an insulated body, often due to friction. / The electric discharge from such a body. / (physics) Electrostatics.
