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.
The charge on an electron is 1.6 x 10-19 C, which is negative.

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.

10thAbhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
Manish Kumar
10thIt 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
10thIt 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.

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
8thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
Om Umang
10thOne of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Aman Kumar Shrivastava
10thMy 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.
