Using Cell Notation
Consider a galvanic cell consisting of
2Cr(s) + 3Cu²+(aq) → 2Cr³+ (aq) + 3Cu(s)
Write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions and write the reaction using cell notation. Which reaction
occurs at the anode? The cathode?
oxidation:
2 Cr(s)
reduction: 3 Cu2+ (aq) + 6e-
2 Cr3+(aq) + 6e-
3 Cu(s)
The oxidation reaction (Cr (s) → Cr3+) occurs at the anode
The reduction reaction (Cu2+ Cu(s)) occurs at the cathode
Cell Notation:
Cr (s) | Cr3+ (aq) || Cu2+ (aq) | Cu (s)
Definition Definition Chemical reactions involving both oxidation and reduction processes. During a redox reaction, electron transfer takes place in such a way that one chemical compound gets reduced and the other gets oxidized.
