Halide ions can he deposited at a silver anode, the reaction being Ag(s) + X- AgX(s) +e- Suppose that a cell was formed by immersing a silver anode in an analyte solution that was 0.0250 M Cl-,Br-, and I -ions and connecting the half-cell to a saturated calomel cathode via a salt bridge. (a) Which halide would form first and at what potential? Is the cell galvanic or electrolytic? (b) Could I- and Br- be separated quantitatively?

Galvanic cells harness spontaneous oxidationreduction reactions to produce work by producing a current. They do so by controlling the flow of electrons from the species oxidized to the species reduced. How is a galvanic cell designed? What is in the cathode compartment? The anode compartment? What purpose do electrodes serve? Which way do electrons always flow in the wire connecting the two electrodes in a galvanic cell? Why is it necessary to use a salt bridge or a porous disk in a galvanic cell? Which way do cations flow in the salt bridge? Which way do the anions flow? What is a cell potential and what is a volt?
The mass of three different metal electrodes, each from a different galvanic cell, were determined before and after the current generated by the oxidation-reduction reaction in each cell was allowed to flow for a few minutes. The first metal electrode, given the label A, was found to have increased in mass; the second metal electrode, given the label B, did not change in mass; and the third metal electrode, given the label C, was found to have lost mass. Make an educated guess as to which electrodes were active and which were inert electrodes, and which were anode(s) and which were the cathode(s).
