Simple Electrolytic Cell Diagram. Diagram and working of an electrolytic cell molten sodium chloride nacl can be subjected to electrolysis with the help of an electrolytic cell as illustrated below. The above diagram shows the main parts used to construct a simple voltaic cell.
Diagram and working of an electrolytic cell molten sodium chloride nacl can be subjected to electrolysis with the help of an electrolytic cell as illustrated below. A sulfuric acid h 2 so 4 solution taken in a container acts as the electrolyte for the reaction. An electrolytic cell is a kind of electrochemical cell it is often used to decompose chemical compounds in a process called electrolysis the greek word lysis means to break up important examples of electrolysis are the decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen and bauxite into aluminium and other.

Two metal electrodes are immersed in this solution. An electrolytic cell is a kind of electrochemical cell it is often used to decompose chemical compounds in a process called electrolysis the greek word lysis means to break up important examples of electrolysis are the decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen and bauxite into aluminium and other. One electrode is made of zinc zn while the other is made of copper cu. Though the direction of electron flow in electrolytic cells may be reversed from the direction of spontaneous electron flow in galvanic cells the definition of both cathode and anode remain the same.
