To solve the question, we will break it down into steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Cell Reaction in the Daniel Cell The Daniel cell consists of a zinc electrode and a copper electrode. The overall cell reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{Zn (s)} + \text{Cu}^{2+} (aq) \rightarrow \text{Zn}^{2+} (aq) + \text{Cu (s)} \] ### Step 2: Write the Half-Reactions The oxidation and reduction half-reactions are: ...
