Question
Depict the galvanic cell in which the cell reaction is \[\ce{Cu + 2Ag^+ -> 2Ag + Cu^{2+}}\]
Advertisements
Solution
Anode- Oxidation half-cell: \[\ce{Cu -> Cu^{2+} + 2e-}\]
Cathode- Reduction half-cell: \[\ce{2Ag+ + 2e^{-} -> 2Ag}\]
Overall reaction: \[\ce{Cu + 2Ag+ -> Cu^{2+} + 2Ag}\]
\[\ce{Cu | Cu^{2+} (aq, 1M) || Ag^{+} (aq, 1M) | Ag}\]
