Write down the half cell reactions and cell reaction for Daniell cell.
`Zn(s)|Zn^(2+)(aq)(1M) || Cu^(2+)(aq)(1M)/Cu(s)`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding the Daniell cell, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the oxidation half-reaction In the Daniell cell, zinc (Zn) is oxidized. The oxidation half-reaction can be written as: \[ \text{Zn(s)} \rightarrow \text{Zn}^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \] This indicates that solid zinc loses two electrons to form zinc ions. ### Step 2: Identify the reduction half-reaction ...
