Chapter 17, Problem 41E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction taking place in two different galvanic cell is given. The sketch of the given galvanic cell along with the cathode and anode and the direction of electron flow, direction of flow of migration of ions through salt bridge, the balanced chemical equation and calculation of $E°$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The galvanic cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy while the electrolytic cell converts electrical energy into chemical energy.

The species at anode undergoes oxidation while the species at cathode undergoes reduction and the electrons generated at the anode are transferred through wire to the cathode.
