Question

name the electrodes and electrolytes in the following cases simple voltaic cell and wet leclanche cell​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The battery contained a conducting solution (electrolyte) of ammonium chloride, a cathode (positive terminal) of carbon, a depolarizer of manganese dioxide (oxidizer), and an anode (negative terminal) of zinc (reductant). The chemistry of this cell was later successfully adapted to manufacture a dry cell.

In a Daniell cell, the electrolytes are ZnSO4(aq) with a Zn anode in its half cell and CuSO4(aq) with a copper cathode in its half cell. The two electrolytes are separated by a porous and inert “salt bridge” that completes the path for the current flow while allowing the separation of ions from each electrolyte.
