Question

55. In a galvanic cell, the electrode occupying a higher
position in the electrochemical series, will act as
(A) anode
(B) oxidation will take place on it
(C) cathode
(D) both (A) and (B)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Because electrons from the oxidation half-reaction are released at the anode, the anode in a galvanic cell is negatively charged. The cathode, which attracts electrons, is positively charged. Not all electrodes undergo a chemical transformation during a redox reaction.
