Question
Two half cells have reduction potentials –0.76 V and – 0.13 V respectively. A galvanic cell is made from these two half cells. Which of the following statements is correct?
- Electrode of half-cell potential –0.76 V serve as cathode
- Electrode of half-cell potential –0.76 V serve as anode
- Electrode of half-cell potential –0.13 V serve as anode
- Electrode of half-cell potential – 0.76 V serve as positive electrode and –0.13 V as negative electrode
The correct answer is: Electrode of half-cell potential –0.76 V serve as anode
The electrode with more negative reduction potential constitute the anode.
