Fe(s) + 2T1⁺(aq) ====> Fe²⁺(aq) + 2T1(s)

Choose the best answer from the choices in each part below:

a.What is the path of electron flow? Through the salt bridge, or

through the external circuit?

b.To which half-cell do the negative ions in the salt bridge move? The

manode, or the cathode?

c.Which metal is the electrode in the anode?

4.predict what reaction, if any, will occur when the following

species are mixed at standard conditions.

(Use Table 17.1 in the uploaded book chapter.)

a. Cr, Ni²⁺, C1^- (in acidic solution)

b.Sulfur is added to mercury.

c.Liquid bromine is added to an aqueous solution of sodium

chloride.

Answer 1
