Chemical systems whose reactions, transport or equilibrium couple to electric charges and electric potential. An electrolyte carries mobile ions; a Poisson-Boltzmann equation can approximate their equilibrium distributions.
A medium with mobile ions capable of carrying electric charge. Dissolved salts typically supply both positive and negative species; a counterion-only model keeps only the mobile species required to oppose a fixed charge. Poisson-Boltzmann equations use ideal Boltzmann distributions for those species.

Electrochemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals with the interrelation of electrical and chemical phenomena. It focuses on the study of chemical processes that cause electrons to move, which in turn generates an electric current. This field encompasses a variety of processes, including: 1. **Electrochemical Reactions**: These are chemical reactions that involve the transfer of electrons, such as oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions.
