Two half cells have reduction potentials `-0.76 V` and `-0.13 V` respectively . A galvanic cell is made from these two half cells . Which of the following statements is correct ?

Options

A. Electrode of half-cell potential ` -0.76 V` serve as cathode
B. Electrode of half-cell potential `-0 .76 V` serve as anode
C. Electrode of half-cell potential ` -0.76 V` serve as anode
D. Delctrode of half-cell potential `-0.76 V` see as positive electrode and ` -`0.13 V` as negative electrode

Answer

B

Explanation

The electrode with more negative reduction potuction potential constitutes the anode.
