Question

Which of the following statements is true for
the electrochemical Daniel cell ?
1) Electrons flow from copper electrode to zinc
electrode
2) Current flows from zinc electrode to copper
electrode
3) Cations move towards copper electrode
4) Cations move toward zinc electrode​

Answer 1

Daniel celI is an electrochemical cell in which Cu acts as cathode and Zn acts as an anode. In Daniel cell,

You should know abt its few features too

(i). Electrons flow from Zn (anode) to Cu (cathode).

(ii) Current flows from Cu (cathode) to Zn (anode).

(iii) Cu

ions (cations) move towards Cu (cathode) and accumulated as Cu metal.

Hence, the correct option is C
