- Galvanic cells harness spontaneous oxidationreduction reactions to produce work by producing a current. They do so by controlling the flow of electrons from the species oxidized to the species reduced. How is a galvanic cell designed? What is in the cathode compartment? The anode compartment? What purpose do electrodes serve? Which way do electrons always flow in the wire connecting the two electrodes in a galvanic cell?
