Create a 4:3 landscape high school chemistry teaching diagram comparing electron and ion movement in a galvanic cell versus an electrolytic cell. On the left, draw a zinc-copper galvanic cell with a light bulb; on the right, draw electrolysis of copper chloride solution with graphite electrodes connected to a DC power supply. Clearly label the electrodes, electrolytes, and where oxidation and reduction occur, as well as electrons traveling through the external circuit and ions migrating through the solution.

Warm white background with near-black line art; use only light gray sectioning to establish the left-right comparison. Electron arrows in blue; ion migration and key points of the reaction equations in orange. The two setups should be equal in size with equal liquid levels; symbols and labels should sit close to their corresponding parts, like an edited comparative experiment illustration from a high school textbook.
Recolor electron arrows green

Changes the electron arrows from blue to green; the ion arrows stay orange.

Swap bulb for ammeter

Replaces the light bulb with a small ammeter; the rest of the cell stays the same.

Add a small legend

Adds a small legend to the line art; everything else stays the same.
