A standard galvanic cell is constructed with Sn2+ |Sn and Mn2+ | Mn half cell compartments connected by a salt bridge. Which of the following statements are correct? Hint: Refer to a table of standard reduction potentials. (Choose all that apply.) As the cell runs, anions will migrate from the Mn2+ | Mn compartment to the Sn2+|Sn compartment. The anode compartment is the Mn2+ |Mn compartment. Sn is oxidized at the anode. The anode compartment is the Sn2+ | Sn compartment. In the external circuit, electrons flow from the Mn2+ | Mn compartment to the Sn2+|Sn compartment.
