An electrolytic cell Group of answer choices consumes electrical current to drive a nonspontaneous chemical reaction. produces e
lectrical current from electricity. produces electrical current from a nonspontaneous chemical reaction. produces electrical current from a spontaneous chemical reaction. consumes electrical current to drive a spontaneous chemical reaction
produces electrical current from electricity. produces electrical current from a nonspontaneous chemical reaction.
Explanation:
An electrolytic cell converts electrical energy into chemical energy. Here, the redox reaction is spontaneous and is responsible for the production of electrical energy. The reaction at the anode is oxidation and that at the cathode is reduction. Here, the anode is positive and the cathode is the negative electrode.
The unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule means that a water molecule has two poles - a positive charge on the hydrogen pole (side) and a negative charge on the oxygen pole (side). We say that the water molecule is electrically polar.
