In the galvanic cell, flow of electrons is from

Options

A. cathode to a anode in solution
B. anode to caltlhode in external wire
C. cathode to anode in external wire
D. anode to cathode in solution

Answer

B

Explanation

In a galvanic cell, electrons move through the external circuit form the negative electrode (anode), where they are produced by the anode half-reaction, to the positive electrode, where they are consumed by the cathode half-reaction. In solution (internal circuit) the current is carried by the ions.
