    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Simple_diagram_of...

    English: A simple diagram of a plant leaf cell, labelled with numbers. It shows the cytoplasm, nucleus, cell membrane, cell wall, mitochondria, permanent vacuole, and chloroplasts. Note going down the left the numbers are not sequential, this is to match the numbering on others in the series.

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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.

  5. Chloralkali process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloralkali_process

    The diaphragm cell process and the mercury cell process have been used for over 100 years but are environmentally unfriendly through their use of asbestos and mercury, respectively. The membrane cell process, which was only developed in the past 60 years, is a superior method with its improved energy efficiency and lack of harmful chemicals. [5]

  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. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  8. Anion exchange membrane electrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anion_exchange_membrane...

    Oxygen gas can enter the hydrogen half-cell and react on the cathode side to form water, which reduces the efficiency of the cell. Gas cross-over from the H 2 to the O 2 evolution side can pose a safety hazard because it can create an explosive gas mixture with >4%mol H 2 .

  9. Earth battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_battery

    The simplest earth batteries consist of conductive plates from different metals of the electropotential series, buried in the ground so that the soil acts as the electrolyte in a voltaic cell. As such, the device acts as a primary cell. When operated only as electrolytic devices, the devices were not continuously reliable, owing to drought ...
