Write each half cell reaction of the following electrochemical cell:
`Al(s)|Al^(3+)(1M)||Zn^(2+)(1M)|Zn(s)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The half cell reaction is :
At anode : `[Al(s)rarrAl^(3+)(aq)+3e^(-)]xx2`
At cathode : `[Zn^(2+)(aq)+2e^(-)rarrZn(s)]xx3`
Overall reaction : `2Al(s)+3Zn^(+2)(aq)rarr3Zn(s)+2Al^(+3)(aq)`
