question 102

Multiple Choice

A galvanic cell consists of one half-cell that contains Ag(s) and Ag⁺(aq) ,and one half-cell that contains Mn(s) and Mn²⁺(aq) .What species are produced at the electrodes under standard conditions? Ag⁺(aq) + e^- → Ag(s) E° = +0.80 V
Mn²⁺(aq) + 2 e^- → Mn(s) E° = -1.18 V

• A) Ag(aq) is formed at the cathode and, Mn(s) is formed at the anode.
• B) Ag(s) is formed at the cathode, and Mn²⁺(aq) is formed at the anode.
• C) Mn(s) is formed at the cathode, and Ag⁺(aq) is formed at the anode.
• D) Mn²⁺(aq) is formed at the cathode, and Ag(s) is formed at the anode.
