Electro Chemical Cell
Electro- Chemical Cell
An electrochemical cell is a device which converts chemical energy into electrical energy. This electrical energy maintains the flow of charge or electrons in a circuit. We can reverse the order that is we provide electric current so that the chemical reactions takes place.So we can say that It is capable of converting chemical energy into electrical energy, or vice versa.
The cells capable of generating an electric current from the chemical reactions occurring in them are called Galvanic cell or Voltaic Cell The cells which cause chemical reactions to occur in them when an electric current is passed through them are called electrolytic cells.The most common example is a dry cell which converts chemical energy into electrical energy. In the case of a rechargable cell we connect it to the mains via a charger so we provide electrical energy to it and it is converted into chemical energy.
It usually consists of two electrodes of different materials and an electrolyte. The electrode at higher potential is called anode and the one at lower potential is cathode.
A common example of an electrochemical cell is a standard 1.5-volt cell which is used to power many electrical appliances such as TV remotes and clocks.
Choose the correct statements (s) in case of a voltaic cell. (a) Cathole used is Zn and anode used is copper. (b) the electrolyte used is dilute sulphuric acid. | |||

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.

8thBeing a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
Prisha Gupta
8thIt was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
Eshan Arora
8thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Barkha Arora
10thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
