Electrochemical Cell vs Electrolytic Cell In electro chemistry oxidation, reduction reactions play an important role. In an oxidation reduction reaction, electrons are transferring from one reactant to another. The substance that accepts electrons is known as a reducing agent, where as the substance which gives away the electron is known as the oxidizing agent. […]

Electrolytic vs Galvanic Cells Electrolytic and galvanic cells are two types of electrochemical cells. In both electrolytic and galvanic cells, oxidation-reduction reactions are taking place. In a cell, there are two electrodes called an anode and a cathode. Oxidation reaction takes place on the anode, and the reduction reaction takes place on the cathode. Electrodes […]
