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.
