Principle A complete galvanic cell is to be set up in this experiment. The terms potential and potential difference can be introduced. In a complete "galvanic cell", two electrodes of different metals each dip in an aqueous solution of one of their own salts. In a copper/zinc cell, therefore, a copper electrode dips in a solution of copper sulphate, and a zinc electrode in a solution of zinc sulphate. The transport of current between the two solutions is made possible by connecting them with a conductive connection.
