A copper rod (Cu(s) and a Ag(s/AgCls) electrode were immersed in an aqueous solution of 0.01 M CuCl2{aq). The two rods were then electrically connected through a voltmeter. Assuming an ideal solution, describe what happens (what you would observe), providing thereby appropriate arguments to support your conclusions!
