The design of a galvanic cell (shown. in Figure 1 for the equation (4) reaction) allows this to occur. In a galvanic cell, two. solutions, one containing the ions of the oxidation half-reaction and the other containing the. ions of the reduction half-reaction, are placed in separated compartments called half-cells.
