Select the description of a galvanic (voltaic) cell. An electrochemical cell that uses electricity to produce an oxidation-reduc
tion reaction. An electrochemical cell that produces electricity from a spontaneous oxidation-reduction reaction. One-half of an electrochemical cell in which either oxidation or reduction occurs. Connects the two half-cells in an electrochemical cell to maintain electrical neutrality.
Answer: An electrochemical cell that produces electricity from a spontaneous oxidation-reduction reaction
Explanation:
Galvanic cell is a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produced in a redox reaction into the electrical energy.
Galvanic cell consists of two half cells known as anode and cathode. Oxidation takes place at anode and reduction takes place at cathode. The two half cells are connected by a salt bridge which contains an electrolyte which maintains the electrical neutrality.
