  1. What statement about a galvanic cell constructed with Cu+/Cu and Fe2+/Fe is correct?

             

     

      a.

    Fe(s) will reduce Cu+(aq).

      b.

    Fe(s) is a stronger oxidizing agent than Cu(s).

      c.

    Fe2+(aq) is reduced at the cathode.

      d.

    The standard cell potential (Eocell) is +1.40 V.

Standard Reduction Potentials E°red / V
