Different types of galvanic cells

Postby Jorja De Jesus 2C » Sun Mar 01, 2020 10:59 pm

Are there other galvanic cells like concentration cells that have special conditions?

Electrolytic cells push the cell in a non-spontaneous direction. Therefore, Ecell will be negative, and ∆G will be positive.

Hope this helped!

To add onto what was said above, electrolytic cells take electrical energy and convert it to chemical energy to drive reactions.
