Question

A voltaic electrochemical cell is constructed in which the anode is a Cr3+Cr half cell and the cathode is a Co2+Co half cell. The half-cell compartments are connected by a salt bridge.

Write the anode reaction.

    +           +    



Write the cathode reaction.

    +           +    



Write the net cell reaction.

    +           +    



In the external circuit, electrons migrate  the Co2+Co electrode  the Cr3+Cr electrode.

In the salt bridge, anions migrate  the Co2+Co compartment  the Cr3+Cr compartment.

A voltaic electrochemical cell is constructed in which the anode is a Cr³*|Cr half cell and the cathode is a Co2+| Co half cell. The half-cell compartments are
connected by a salt bridge.
Write the anode reaction.
+
Write the cathode reaction.
Write the net cell reaction.
In the external circuit, electrons migrate
v the Co2+|Co electrode
v the Cr*|Cr electrode.
In the salt bridge, anions migrate
v the Co2+| Co compartment
v the Cr**|Cr compartment.
