The energy released through the chemical reaction within the cell results in a difference in potential appearing across the cell's terminals. This potential difference drives the free electrons already within an external conductor to move along the length of that conductor.

∙ 11y agoAn electrochemical cell uses chemical energy to create a temporary dipole. The electricity is formed on the positive terminal as the electrons are created from the energy vacuum in attempt to bring the dipole to static equilibrium. Therefore the electrons being a negative charge are more measurable on the positive terminal.

A salt bridge is needed in an electrochemical cell to buffer provide ions behave as an electrode or complete the electric circuit?
A salt bridge will allow for the completion of a circuit in an electrochemical cell.
An electrolytic cell is different from a voltaic cell because in an electrolytic cell?
an electric current causes a chemical reaction
What happens in electrochemical cell to cause it to go flat?
An electrochemical cell comprises of 2 REDOX half cells. These are made of a metal dipped in a solution of its own ions. One of these metals will corrode away to form ions and electrons- which form the basis of the electric current by acting as the cathode. Simply put, an electrochemical cell goes flat because there's no more metal left to break down, thus it goes flat.
The anode in an electrochemical cell has this charge?
The Anode in electrochemical cell has negative charge (-ve).
What are Electrochemical fuel cells?
Lots of things have an electrochemical cell in them. That electrochemical cell is a battery. You cell phone has at least two of them. There is a small one that "keeps alive" memory if you remove the primary battery. A flashlight has a cell or cells in it. We could go on all day. Motor vehicles have a battery, which is a collection of electrochemical cells. Note that a battery could be composed of a single cell, like the "AAA", "AA", "C" and "D" cells. We call them batteries, but they are a single electrochemical cell. A 9-volt battery, on the other hand, has several cells in it stacked in series so their voltages add. That car battery we mentioned is 6 electrochemical cells "long" so that the voltages will sum to the 12 volts (which is actually a bit over 13 volts).
What uses a chemical reaction to create an electric current?
An electrochemical cell, which is sometimes called a battery.

What materials are needed to produce an electrochemical cell?
An electrochemical cell requires two different electrodes (ussually metals) and an electrolyte. Just so you know, i copied this statement straight out of a textbook ;)

How does an electric current produce light?
By heating a metal wire called a filament. In a light bulb (lamp) the electric current flows through a tungsten filament which glows white hot giving off light.
The anode in an electrochemical cell has this charge?
The Anode in electrochemical cell has negative charge (-ve).
What is a positive or negative pole of an electrochemical cell?
They are called the electrodes or terminals. The parts of a cell where current leaves and enters the cell. The cathode is the positive, the anode is the negative.
Can the current supplied by a dry cell give an electric shock?
no. if the cell is dry, the electric capacity also becomes dry and this does not affect the conductor.
Materials of solar power?
In a crystalline solar electric panel, the light of the sun interacts with a semiconductor material (usually silicon) in the PV cell to free electrons and produce an electric current.
