What are the properties of an electrolytic cell?
Properties of the electrolytic cell
- An electrolytic cell converts electrical energy into chemical energy.
- The redox reaction is not spontaneous and electrical energy has to be supplied to initiate the reaction.
- Both the electrodes are placed in the same container in the solution of molten electrolyte
- Here, the anode is positive and the cathode is the negative electrode. The reaction at the anode is oxidation and that at the cathode is reduction.
- The external battery supplies the electrons. They enter through the cathode and come out through the anode.
