Unlabeled Galvanic Cell Diagram. In the figure below from openstax a copper wire is dipped in an aqueous solution containing ag. You show the direction of electron flow in the external circuit and the flow of ions in the internal circuit.
Galvanic or voltaic cells involve spontaneous electrochemical reactions in which the half reactions are separated so that current can flow through an external wire. A voltaic cell also known as a galvanic cell is an electrochemical cell that uses spontaneous redox reactions to generate electricity.
