1.

Explain with diagram the construction, cell reactions and symbolic representation of the Daniel cell.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Daniel cell is a electrochemical cell It consistsof TWO half cells or two ELECTODE SYSTEMS.
Zinc rod dipped in 1M `ZuSO_(4)` forms Anode. In this electrode, Zin: rod is -vely charged with respect to the solution and zinc undergoes oxidation.
Copper red dropped in1M `CuSO_(4)` forms Cathode. In the electode, copper rod is +vely charged with respect lo the solution and copper ions undergoes reduction.
The metallie rods in the vessel are connected through ammeter by means of insulated wire. The SOLUTIONS in the two beakers are connected by means of Salt bridge.
