<span>(a) What is the material coating the iron? Cu(s) 

(b) What is the oxidizing agent? The oxidizing agent is reduced (goes down in oxidation number) since Cu starts off as Cu^2+ and ends up as Cu^0, it went down in oxidation number, was reduced, and thus was the oxidizing agent.

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation.
icang [17]

The cell notation is:

Mg(s)|Mg^{+2}(aq)||Ag^{+}(aq)|Ag(s)

here in cell notation the left side represent the anodic half cell where right side represents the cathodic half cell

in anodic half cell : oxidation takes place [loss of electrons]

in cathodic half cell: reduction takes place [gain of electrons]

1) this is a galvanic cell

2) the standard potential of cell will be obtained by subtracting the standard reduction potential of anode from cathode

E^{0}_{Mg}=-2.38V

E^{0}_{Ag}=+0.80V

Therefore

E^{0}_{cell}=0.80-(-2.38)=+3.18V

3) as the value of emf is positive the reaction will be spontaneous as the free energy change of reaction will be negative

ΔG^{0}=-nFE^{0}

As reaction is spontaneous and there will be conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy it is a galvanic cell.
