Question

Identify the equation which happens at anode

  1. Z n left parenthesis s right parenthesis space rightwards arrow Z n to the power of plus 2 end exponent left parenthesis a q. right parenthesis space plus 2 space e to the power of minus
  2. C u to the power of plus 2 end exponent left parenthesis a q. right parenthesis space plus 2 space e to the power of minus space space rightwards arrow space C u left parenthesis s right parenthesis
  3. 2 H to the power of plus left parenthesis a q. right parenthesis space plus 2 space e to the power of minus space space rightwards arrow space H subscript 2 left parenthesis g right parenthesis
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

An oxidation reaction that takes place in the anode.

The correct answer is: Z n left parenthesis s right parenthesis space rightwards arrow Z n to the power of plus 2 end exponent left parenthesis a q. right parenthesis space plus 2 space e to the power of minus


    • Oxidation reactions occur in the anode where the reduction reactions are carried out in the cathode.
    • Zn (s) → Zn+2 (aq.) + 2 eis an oxidation reaction.
    • So this reaction Zn (s) → Zn+2 (aq.) + 2e- is occurs in the anode.
