Description
Have you ever built a lemon battery? How do they work? (0:32). We are distinguishing between two types of electrochemical cells: galvanic, also called voltaic cells, and electrolytic cells (1:05). Both cells have an anode, where the oxidation takes place, and a cathode, where the reduction occurs. (2:01). But where are the differences? Our episode describes the set-up of a galvanic cell (4:25) as well as electrolytic cell (5:09) and the function of all components.Question: What metal (oxide) is used in common household batteries?Thank you for listening to The APsolute RecAP: Chemistry Edition!(AP is a registered trademark of the College Board and is not affiliated with The APsolute RecAP.
