- 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).arrow_forwardGive the notation for a voltaic cell whose overall cell reaction is Mg(s)+2Ag+(aq)Mg2+(aq)+2Ag(s) What are the half-cell reactions?

A gas evolves at each electrode, and there is a large increase in pH of the solution. Write the half-reactions that occur at the anode and at the cathode.arrow_forward
