What Would You Observe If You Set Up the Following

question 5

Multiple Choice

What would you observe if you set up the following electrochemical cell: Ag|AgNO₃(0.001 M) ||AgNO₃(1 M) |Ag?

• A) Electrons will flow from left to right, causing a decrease in the AgNO₃ concentration in the left cell, and an increase in the AgNO₃ concentration in the right cell.
• B) Electrons will flow from right to left, causing an increase in the AgNO₃ concentration in the left cell, and a decrease in the AgNO₃ concentration in the right cell.
• C) Electrons will flow from left to right, causing an increase in the AgNO₃ concentration in the left cell, and a decrease in AgNO₃ concentration in the right cell.
• D) Electrons will flow from right to left, causing a decrease in the AgNO₃ concentration in the left cell, and an increase in the AgNO₃ concentration in the right cell.
• E) There will be no electron flow because the reduction potential at both electrodes is the same.
