im abit confused when they ask about secondary cells in yr 12 chem bcos i have to know if its a galvanic cell or electrolytic cell so that i can determine the charges and which electrodes are the cathode and anode
if you can answer this for me.. ill be very appreciative =DD

they are electrolytic cells that’s why they can be recharged by passing current in the opposite direction
secondary cells galvanic cells-rechargable:NiMh,LiIon,lead acid
primary cells galvanic:nonreusable,use and throw away
