  2. Electrolytic cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolytic_cell

    An electrolytic cell is an electrochemical cell that utilizes an external source of electrical energy to force a chemical reaction that would otherwise not occur. [ 1 ] : 64, 89 [ 2 ] : GL7 The external energy source is a voltage applied between the cell's two electrodes ; an anode (positively charged electrode) and a cathode (negatively ...

  3. Electrochemical cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_cell

    An electrolytic cell is an electrochemical cell in which applied electrical energy drives a non-spontaneous redox reaction. [5] A modern electrolytic cell consisting of two half reactions, two electrodes, a salt bridge, voltmeter, and a battery. They are often used to decompose chemical compounds, in a process called electrolysis.

    The video describes the electrolytic process as it is occurring on Captain Kidd's cannon, which is on display and currently undergoing the electrolytic process. Other languages English: A video describing the process of electrolytic reduction used in a display at The Children's Museum of Indianapolis within the Treasures of the Earth exhibit.

  6. Proton exchange membrane electrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_exchange_membrane...

    Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis is the electrolysis of water in a cell equipped with a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) [3] that is responsible for the conduction of protons, separation of product gases, and electrical insulation of the electrodes.

  7. Concentration polarization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration_polarization

    In electrochemistry, concentration polarization denotes the part of the polarization of an electrolytic cell resulting from changes in the electrolyte concentration due to the passage of current through the electrode/solution interface. [1]

  8. Cell notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_notation

    In electrochemistry, cell notation or cell representation is a shorthand method of expressing a reaction in an electrochemical cell.. In cell notation, the two half-cells are described by writing the formula of each individual chemical species involved in the redox reaction across the cell, with all other common ions and inert substances being ignored.

  9. Galvanic cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_cell

    A galvanic cell consists of two half-cells, such that the electrode of one half-cell is composed of metal A, and the electrode of the other half-cell is composed of metal B; the redox reactions for the two separate half-cells are thus: A n + + n e − ⇌ A B m + + m e − ⇌ B. The overall balanced reaction is:
