Question

Use the References to access important values if needed for this question. A standard galvanic cell is constructed with Fe3Fe and Fe* Fe half cell compartments connected by a salt bridge. Which of the following statements are corect? Hint: Refer to a table of standard reduction potentials. (Choose all that apply.) Fe3 is reduced at the cathode. The anode compartment is the Fe3 Fe2 compartment. In the external circuit, electrons flow from the Fe2' Fe compartment to the Fe3 Fe2 compartment. The anode compartment is the Fe2 Fe compartment. As the cell runs, anions will migrate from the Fe2 Fe compartment to the Fe3 Fe2 compartment. An error has been detected in your answer.

Explanation / Answer

answer.

Fe+2 / Fe electrode has a negative value of standard electrode potential therefore Fe+2 / Fe electrode is strong reducing agent.

So, Fe+3 / Fe +2 will reduce at cathode.

in externa circuit, the electron flow from anode(Fe+2 / Fe) to cathode (Fe+3 / Fe+2)

anode comparment is the Fe+2 / Fe compartment
