Represent the galvanic cell in the reaction Zn(s) + Cu^2+ --⟩ Zn^2+(

1.	Represent the galvanic cell in the reaction Zn(s) + Cu^2+ --⟩ Zn^2+(aq) + Cu(s)
Answer» Answer: EXPLANATION: The galvanic cell in which the given reaction takes place is depicted as: Zn(s)∣Zn 2+ (AQ)∣∣Ag + (aq)∣Ag(s) (i) The negatively charged ELECTRODE is the zinc electrode. It acts as an anode. (ii) In the external circuit, the current will flow from silver to zinc. (iii) Oxidation at anode: Zn(s)→Zn 2+ (aq)+2e − REDUCTION at cathode: Ag + (aq)+e − →Ag(s)

Represent the galvanic cell in the reaction Zn(s) + Cu^2+ --⟩ Zn^2+(aq) + Cu(s)

Answer»

Answer:

EXPLANATION:

The galvanic cell in which the given reaction takes place is depicted as:

Zn(s)∣Zn

(AQ)∣∣Ag

(aq)∣Ag(s)

(i) The negatively charged ELECTRODE is the zinc electrode. It acts as an anode.

(ii) In the external circuit, the current will flow from silver to zinc.

(iii) Oxidation at anode: Zn(s)→Zn

(aq)+2e

−

REDUCTION at cathode: Ag

(aq)+e

−

→Ag(s)
