Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The oxidation half-cell reaction for the redox reaction of nickel and ferrous sulfate is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

In an electrochemical cell, two electrodes are connected by a wire and electrons are free to move between two compartments. Each compartment is known as a half-cell.

The reduction is defined as a process in which the gain of electrons occurs, whereas oxidation is defined as the process of loss of electrons. The substance that is oxidized is a reducing agent and the substance that is reduced is an oxidizing agent.
