- Select the FALSE proposition: (a) An electrode is any piece of a metallic chemical element that is introduced into a solution (b) In an electrochemical cell, the electrode with the highest reduction potential on the scale of reduction potentials acts as the cathode. (c) An electrode must be made of the same metal that is dissolved in the form of salt in the same half-cell, or of a metal that serves as an electrical support and that is chemically inert to the substance that undergoes the oxidation process. reduction and in which the exchange of electrons between the oxidizing and reducing agents takes place (d) In a half cell, the oxidation reaction and the reduction reaction occur simultaneouslyarrow_forwardA standard galvanic cell is constructed with I2|I- and Mg2+|Mg 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.) The anode compartment is the Mg2+|Mg compartment. Mg2+ is reduced at the cathode. As the cell runs, anions will migrate from the I2|I- compartment to the Mg2+|Mg compartment.

Select every statement that is true about this concentration cell. Question 6 options: Electrons are moving from the electrode with the 0.5 M solution to the electrode with the 1.0 M solution. As with all concentration cells, the change in enthalpy for the system is zero. As with all concentration cells, the change in entropy for the system is negative. As with all concentration cells, the net result of discharging the cell will be to absorb heat from the surroundings and convert it into electrical work.arrow_forward
