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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The half cell reaction is :
At anode : `[Ag^(+)(aq)+e^(-)rarrAg(s)]xx2`
At anode : `Cu(s)rarrCu^(2+)(aq)+2e^(-)`
Overall reaction : `Cu(s)+2Ag^(+)(1M)rarrCu^(2+)(1M)+2Ag(s)`
