19.3: Voltaic (or Galvanic) Cells: Generating Electricity from Spontaneous Chemical Reactions …
In any electrochemical process, electrons flow from one chemical substance to another, driven by an oxidation–reduction (redox) reaction. A redox reaction occurs when electrons are transferred from a substance that is oxidized to one that is being reduced. The reductant is the substance that loses electrons and is oxidized in the process; the oxidant is the …
