    1. Consist of two half cells
      1. Electrode immersed in electrolyte
        1. Through which ions move
        2. Connected to each other by a wire
          1. Through which electrons move
          2. Each electrolyte is connected by a salt bridge
            1. Through which ions move
            2. Oxidation / Reduction
