NEET Chemistry Electrolytic Cells MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about electrochemical cells is correct?
A galvanic cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy.
Electrolytic cells can only be used for spontaneous reactions.
Cell potential is measured in milliamperes.
Primary batteries can be recharged multiple times.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
A galvanic cell indeed converts chemical energy from redox reactions into electrical energy, as stated in the context. The other options are incorrect; electrolytic cells require electrical energy for non-spontaneous reactions, cell potential is measured in volts, and primary batteries cannot be recharged.
