Electrolysis

Electrolysis is defined as the process of breaking down ionic compounds into their constituent elements by passing a direct electric current through the compound in a fluid state. The cathode reduces cations, while the anode oxidizes anions. An electrolyte, electrodes, and some form of external power source are the main components required for conducting electrolysis. A partition, such as an ion-exchange membrane or a salt bridge, may also be used, but this is optional. These are primarily used to prevent the products from diffusing near the opposing electrode.

Question

**Identify the anode half reaction and the cathode half reaction in the following galvanic cell:**

Pt | Cu⁺(aq), Cu²⁺(aq) || Fe³⁺(aq), Fe²⁺(aq) | Pt

In this cell notation:
- The single vertical lines (|) represent phase boundaries.
- The double vertical line (||) represents a salt bridge or a junction between two different half-cells.

To identify the reactions:
- **Anode (oxidation site):** Where oxidation occurs. In this setup, the species on the left of the salt bridge will undergo oxidation.
- **Cathode (reduction site):** Where reduction occurs. In this setup, the species on the right of the salt bridge will undergo reduction.

**Half Reactions:**

- **Anode Half Reaction:** The oxidation of Cu⁺ to Cu²⁺
\[ \text{Cu}^+ (aq) \rightarrow \text{Cu}^{2+} (aq) + \text{e}^- \]

- **Cathode Half Reaction:** The reduction of Fe³⁺ to Fe²⁺
\[ \text{Fe}^{3+} (aq) + \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Fe}^{2+} (aq) \]

Here, Pt (platinum) is used as an inert electrode to allow the transfer of electrons.
