For a Galvanic cell consisting zinc electrode and standard hydrogen electrode, V. Identify the reaction that takes place at positive electrode during working of cell?

Answer: (D)

Solution

V (the magnitude 0.76 V corresponds to the oxidation of Zn to against SHE, V), which is lower than . So zinc is the stronger reducing agent: it is oxidised at the negative electrode (anode), $\mathrm{Zn →
