Question

A voltaic cell is constructed in which the following cell reaction occurs. The half-cell compartments are connected by a salt bridge.

Br2(l) + 2I-(aq) ---> 2Br-(aq) + I2(s)

The anode reaction is:

    +              +    



The cathode reaction is:

    +              +    



In the external circuit, electrons migrate (to or from?) the Br-|Br2 electrode (to or from?) the I-|I2 electrode.

In the salt bridge, anions migrate (to or from?) the Br-|Br2 compartment (to or from?) the I-|I2 compartment.
