Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 23
Question: For cell reaction, $ Zn+C{u^{2+}}\to Z{n^{2+}}+Cu, $ cell representation is cell cell [BCECE 2005]
Options:
A) Zn | Zn2+||Cu2+|Cu
B) Cu | Cu2+ ||Zn2+| Zn
C) Cu | Zn2+ || Zn | Cu2+
D) Cu2+ | Zn || Zn2+ | Cu
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
Electrode on which oxidation occurs is written on $ L.H.S. $ and the other on the $ R.H.S. $ as represented by $ Zn|Z{n^{2+}}||C{u^{2+}}|Cu $ .
