<span>At 20g with half-life of 5 minutes there would be 10g leftover in 5 minutes. In 10 mins, there would be 5g leftover. Half-life is actually what it says, it refers to time it takes for half of the active elements, etc to break down at which time the potency of the "product" is half as strong. This term is used mainly with radioactive items or medicines.</span>

When comparing voltaic cells to electrolytic cells, oxidation occurs at the.
stira [4]

When comparing voltaic and electrolytic cells oxidation occurs at both the anode and the cathode.

<h3>What is an electrolytic cell?</h3>

In an electrolytic cell, the reaction is non-spontaneous so it requires some input of energy for it to function while for a voltaic cell, the reaction is spontaneous.

Oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.

Thus, when comparing voltaic and electrolytic cells oxidation occurs at both the anode and the cathode.
