Chemistry is the driving force behind the magics of batteries.A battery is a package of one or more galvanic cells used for the production and storage of electric energy by chemical means. A galvanic cell consists of at least two half cells, a reduction cell and an oxidation cell. Chemical reactions in the two half cells provide the energy for the galvanic cell operations.Each half cell consists of an electrode and an electrolyte solution. Usually the solution contains ions derived from the electrode by oxidation or reduction reaction.We will make this introduction using a typical setup as depicted here. The picture shows a copper zinc galvanic cell (battery).A galvanic cell is also called a voltaic cell. The spontaneous reactions in it provide the electric energy or current.Two half cells can be put together to form an electrolytic cell, which is used for electrolysis. In this case, electric energy is used to force nonsponaneous chemical reactions.
A voltaic battery is also known as a voltaic pile, which is a set (or pile) of galvanic cells linked together in series to create a larger voltage than could be generated by a single galvanic cell. Therefore a voltaic cell would simply be one element of the pile which is also one galvanic cell.
Galvanic cells run spontaneously and do not require any energy to run to completion, but Electrolytic cells require energy to run to completion, and are non-spontaneous.

It gives the cells energy to do there different activities.
A Galvanic cell, or Voltaic cell, named after Luigi Galvani, or Alessandro Volta respectively, is an electrochemical cell that derives electrical energy from spontaneous redox reaction taking place within the cell. It generally consists of two different metals connected by a salt bridge, or individual half-cells separated by a porous membrane.Volta was the inventor of the voltaic pile, the first electrical battery. In common usage, the word "battery" has come to include a single Galvanic cell, but a battery properly consists of multiple

Any form of oxidation using galvanic cells does not require water
