Photo-Blue-Bottle - Electrochemical Concentration Cell

The video shows the Photo-Blue-Bottle experiment in a galvanic cell. Both half cells have the same configuration and contain the same solution. By irradiating one cell with light, a voltage is built up which breaks down again after the introduction of air into the irradiated blue solution. The voltage difference is visualized by a comparator.
