What is the free energy change `(DeltaG)` for galvanic and electrolytic cel ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For galvanic cell, `DeltaGlt0(` since the redox reaction is spontaneous or exergonic`)`.
For electrolytic cell , `DeltaGlt0(` since the redox reaction is nonspontaneous or endergonic `).`
