Question

Explain two ways that voltaic cells and electrolytic cells are similar AND two ways that they differ.

Answer 1

Similarities:
•They both have cathode and anode charges.
•Cathode facilitates oxidation and the anode facilitates reduction.

Differences:
•Voltaic cells “work” autonomously, while electrolytic cells need an outside source of energy to work.
•While the voltaic cells’ redox reaction is uncalled-for, the electrolytic cells happen at a set time.
