Galvanic and Electrolytic cell
These cells have a lot in common but there are also significant differences as well. The similarities include:
Similarities
Galvanic and electrolytic cell are similar in the sense that they are both:
- Electrochemical cells since energy is being converted to electrical energy or vice versa.
- Both involve oxidation and reduction
- The electrochemical series can be used to predict the reactions in both
- and both has a specific anode and cathode.
