Differences Between Voltaic and Electrolytic Cells. -Voltaic cells use spontaneous reactions to produce energy-Electrolytic cells use non-spontaneous reactions that requires energy-Voltaic cells have a negative anode and a positive cathode-Electrolytic cells have a positive anode and a negative cathode.
1.1 The positively charged electrode of an electrical device, such as a primary cell, that supplies current. Example sentences. 1  Therefore, in electrolytic cells, the cathode is the negative terminal and the anode is the positive terminal.2  Most fuel cells use a polymer electrolyte membrane to separate the cathode and anode.xample sentences. 1  Therefore, in electrolytic cells, the cathode is the negative terminal and the anode is the positive terminal. 2  Most fuel cells use a polymer electrolyte membrane to separate the cathode and anode.
