Vedclass · Answer

(A) In an electrochemical cell represented as $A | A^{+} || B^{+} | B$,the left side represents the anode where oxidation occurs,and the right side represents the cathode where reduction occurs. At the anode: $A 	o A^{+} + e^-$. At the cathode: $B^{+} + e^- 	o B$. Adding these two half-reactions gives the overall cell reaction: $A + B^{+} 	o A^{+} + B$. Since the cell potential is positive $(+0.20 \ V)$,the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction as written.

$A$ hypothetical electrochemical cell is shown below $A | A^{+} (xM) || B^{+} (yM) | B$. If the cell potential is $+0.20 \ V$,the cell reaction is :-
