What is a concentration cell, how does it work, and what is an example?

A concentration cell is a certain type of electrochemical cell where two half-cells are made up of the same material; however, they have different concentrations of ions. This causes them to generate an electromotive force through the concentration gradient between the two half-cells. An example would be the Daniell cell!
