The voltage of a voltaic cell can be determined by the reduction potentials of the half reactions. Voltaic cells are fashioned into batteries, which are a convenient source of electricity.

The half-cells separate the oxidation half-reaction from the reduction half-reaction and make it possible for current to flow through an external wire. One half-cell contains the anode. Oxidation occurs at the anode. The anode is connected to the cathode in the other half-cell. Reduction occurs at the cathode. Adding a salt bridge completes the circuit allowing current to flow.

In some cases electrical energy supplied from an outside source can cause a chemical reaction to take place. Such a process is called electrolysis, and the system to which electricity is supplied is called an electrolytic cell. A typical example of electrolysis is the laboratory preparation of hydrogen and oxygen by passing electrical current through-water.

Electrochemistry is the study of the relationship between electricity and chemical reactions. The oxidation–reduction reaction that occurs during an electrochemical process consists of two half-reactions, one representing the oxidation process and one the reduction process.

A salt bridge that contains an inert electrolyte, such as KCl, connects the two half-cells. The ends of the salt bridge are fixed with porous frits, which allow the electrolyte’s ions to move freely between the half-cells and the salt bridge. This movement of ions in the salt bridge completes the electrical circuit.

The cell potential is the way in which we can measure how much voltage exists between the two half cells of a battery. We will explain how this is done and what components allow us to find the voltage that exists in an electrochemical cell.
