Voltaic cell

Clean textbook-style schematic of a simple voltaic (galvanic) cell shown as two separate transparent half-cell beakers or clear containers placed side by side. Each container holds a visible liquid electrolyte with a vertically immersed solid metal electrode strip or rectangular bar. The two electrodes are different materials. The half-cells are connected internally by a U-shaped or gently curved salt bridge spanning between the solutions, and externally by a wire linking the two electrodes. The external wire may include a small voltmeter, meter, or bulb. Overall appearance is a neat, compact educational diagram with clear glassware, visible liquid fill, and clearly separated electrochemical components.
