GALvontic vs Voltaic cells Flashcards
(E°cell > 0)
galvanic (voltaic cell)
(E°cell < 0)
Electrolytic cells
Spontaneous redox reactions (ΔG < 0)
galvanic (voltaic cell)
Electrons flow from positively-charged anode to negatively-charged cathode
electrolytic cell
nonspontaneous redox reactions (ΔG > 0)
electrolytic cell
Converts chemical to electrical energy
galvanic (voltaic cell)
onverts electrical to chemistry energy
electrolytic ell
Does not require an external power sourc
galvanic/ voltaic cell
Requires an external power source
electrolytic cell
Electrons flows from negatively-charged anode to positively-charged cathode
Galvanic (voltaic) cells
uses salt bridge
voltaic
uses porous barrier
electrolytic
always on the left side
anode
always on the right side
cathode
represented by single vertical line
phase change
