Summary
A galvanic cell consists of two electrodes: the anode (negative) where oxidation occurs and the cathode (positive) where reduction takes place. The voltage of the cell depends on the concentration of ions, temperature, and pressure, with standard values yielding a potential of 1.1 volts for a typical setup.
