Electrochemical cells are devices that convert chemical energy into electrical energy or vice versa, based on the principles of electrochemistry. These cells consist of two electrodes (an anode and a cathode) immersed in an electrolyte solution, which facilitates the movement of ions. There are two main types of electrochemical cells: 1. **Galvanic (Voltaic) Cells**: - These cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy through spontaneous redox reactions.
