The voltaic cell produces electric current from a spontaneous chemical reaction, but electrolytic reactions are not spontaneous. True False

Respuesta :

I believe the correct answer is true. Voltaic cells produces current from spontaneous reactions and is also known as galvanic cell. For electrolytic cells the reactions are not spontaneous and requires input of current for the reaction to occur.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Voltaic cell is a type of electrochemical cell. Electrochemical cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy. This chemical energy is caused by a spontaneous oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction with oxidation occurring at the anode and reduction occurring at the cathode.

An electrolytic reaction involves a non-spontaneous redox reaction in which electrical energy is converted to chemical energy.
