It is a cell that contains an electrolyte in which an electrochemical reaction produces an electromotive force.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of cells has a nonspontaneous voltage?
An electrolytic cell
Where can you find the article regarding electrolytic cells in the NEC?
2008 National Electrical Code - Table of Contents - Chapter 6 Special Equipment - Article 668 Electrolytic Cells
What types of cell consumes electrical energy?
electrolytic cells
What is true of both galvanic and electrolytic cells?
*electrolytic cells Oxidation occurs at the cathode
What cells would you use to electroplate silver in iron?
an electrolytic cell.
What is true of both and electrolytic cells?
reduction happens at the cathode Oxidation happens at the anode
Which cells would you use to electroplate silver (Ag) on iron (Fe)?
An electrolytic cell
Do electrolytic cells require salt bridges for their operation?
Yes, electrolytic cells require salt bridges for their operation. Salt bridges help maintain electrical neutrality by allowing ions to flow between the two half-cells, preventing the buildup of charge and enabling the cell to function properly.
What is the true of both galvanic and electrolytic cells?
They are nonspontaneous
How is an electrolytic cell different from a glavantic cell?
An electrolytic cell uses electrical energy to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction, typically involving the decomposition of compounds, while a galvanic (or voltaic) cell generates electrical energy from spontaneous chemical reactions. In an electrolytic cell, the anode is positive and the cathode is negative, whereas in a galvanic cell, the anode is negative and the cathode is positive. Additionally, electrolytic cells require an external power source, while galvanic cells operate independently by harnessing the energy from chemical reactions.
What is the purpose of the pieces of porous pot?
Porous pots are used in electrolytic cells to separate the two half-cells while allowing ion flow between them. This helps prevent mixing of the electrolytes and enables the cell to function properly. It also helps maintain the concentration gradients needed for the electrolytic process.
what do we call the chemical reaction that uses an electrical current to decompose a compound?
electrolytic decomposition reaction.
