Write the anode and cathode reactions and the overall reaction occurring in a lead storage battery.

Consider the cell reaction of an electrochemical cell : Ni(s) + 2 Ag^(+)("aq") rarr Ni^(2+) ("aq") + 2 Ag (s) and answer the questions : Write anode and cathode half reactions.

Sketching and labeling a galvanic cell: Design a galvanic cell that uses the redox reaction Fe(s) + 2Fe^(3+)(aq.) rarr 3Fe^(2+)(aq.) Identify the anode cathode half-reactions and sketch the experimental setup. Label the anode and cathode, indicate the directon of elecron and ion flow, and identify the sign of each elctrode. Strategy: First sepreate the overall cell reaction into anode (oxidation) and cathode (reduction) half-reactions. Then, set up two half-cells that use half-reactions, and connect the half-cells with a conducating wire and a salt bridge.

Writing the cell reaction from the cell notation: Given the following shorthand notation Pt(s) | Sn^(2+) (aq., 1 M), Sn^(4+)(aq., 1 M) || Fe^(3+)(aq., 1 M),Fe^(2+)(aq., 1 M) | Pt(s) Write a balanced equation for the cell reaction and give a brief description of the cell. Strategy: We can write the overall cell reaction from the cell notation by first writing the approprite half-cell reactions. We can obtain the cell half-reactions simply by reading the short-hand notation. The shorthand notation specifies the anode (on the extreme left), the cathode (on the extreeme right), and the reactants in tghe half-cell compartments. To find the balanced equation for the cell reaction, we first write the approprite half-cell reactions. two half-reactions after multiplying each (if necessary) by an approprite factor so that the electrons will cancel. The result is the cell reaction.
