In a galvanic (voltaic) cell, what occurs at the anode and cathode, and in which direction do electrons flow in the external circuit?

Lernkarte aus dem Deck Gaokao essentials: original practice.

Antwort

Oxidation occurs at the anode; reduction occurs at the cathode. Electrons flow through the external circuit from anode to cathode.

Erklärung

Anions in the salt bridge migrate toward the anode, while cations migrate toward the cathode to maintain electrical neutrality.
