If the applied external potential is equal and opposite to the cell potential, the REDOX reaction stops. But, if the applied voltage is bit higher, then it converts in to electrolytic cell.

Q. An electrochemical cell converts into electrolvtic cell if

$E_{c, ll} = 0$

$E_{cell} > E_{external}$

$E_{external} > E_{cell}$

$E_{cell} = E_{external}$

Q. An electrochemical cell converts into electrolvtic cell if

Ec,ll​=0

Ecell ​>Eexternal ​

Eexternal ​>Ecell ​

Ecell ​=Eexternal ​

If the applied external potential is equal and opposite to the cell potential, the REDOX reaction stops. But, if the applied voltage is bit higher, then it converts in to electrolytic cell.

$E_{c, ll} = 0$

$E_{cell} > E_{external}$

$E_{external} > E_{cell}$

$E_{cell} = E_{external}$
