1 The anode is the electrode where oxidation (loss of electrons) takes place; in a galvanic cell, it is the negative electrode, as when oxidation occurs, electrons are left behind on the electrode.

For each half-cell, the metal, which is called an electrode, is placed in the solution and connected to an external wire. The electrode at which oxidation occurs is called the anode [Zn in equation (4)] and the electrode at which reduction occurs is called the cathode [Cu in equation (4)].

Schematic of Zn-Cu galvanic cell. In its simplest form, a half-cell consists of a solid metal (called an electrode) that is submerged in a solution; the solution contains cations of the electrode metal and anions to balance the charge of the cations.

1 The metal-A electrode is the anode. 2  The cathode is the electrode where reduction (gain of electrons) takes place; in a galvanic cell, it is the positive electrode, as less oxidation occurs, fewer ions go into solution, and less electrons are left on the electrode.

1) The half-cell is a chamber in the voltaic cell where one half-cell is the site of the oxidation reaction and the other half-cell is the site of the reduction reaction. Type the half-cell reaction that takes place at the anode for the iron-silver voltaic cell. Indicate the physical states using the abbreviation (s), (l), or (g) for solid, liquid, or gas, respectively. Use (aq) for an aqueous solution. Do not forget to add electrons in your reaction.

Copper readily oxidizes zinc; for the Daniell cell depicted in the figure, the anode is zinc and the cathode is copper, and the anions in the solutions are sulfates of the respective metals. When an electrically conducting device connects the electrodes, the electrochemical reaction is:

The values of E ° for the oxidation half-reactions are opposite in sign to the reduction potentials: +0.76 V for Zn and –0.34 V for Cu. A galvanic cell or voltaic cell is a device in which a redox reaction, such as the one in equation (4), spontaneously occurs and produces an electric current.

In a galvanic cell, two solutions, one containing the ions of the oxidation half-reaction and the other containing the ions of the reduction half-reaction, are placed in separated compartments called half-cells.

Consider a iron-silver voltaic cell that is constructed such that one half-cell consists of the iron, Fe, electrode immersed in a Fe(NO3)3 solution, and the other half-cell consists of the silver, Ag, electrode immersed in a AgNO3 solution. The two electrodes are connected by a copper wire. The Fe electrode acts as...
