It shifts in the exothermic direction.

Answer: The correct option is C.

Explanation: Le-Chatelier's principle is a principle in which the equilibrium adjusts itself whenever there is a change in the equilibrium conditions (pressure, temperature and concentration).

When reaction is an exothermic reaction, it means that the heat is released (increase in temperature) and when it is an endothermic reaction, it means that the heat is being absorbed (decrease in temperature).

So, in a reaction, when the temperature is reduced, the equilibrium reaction will shift in the direction where there is an increase in temperature, which is the exothermic reaction.

Hence, the correct option is C.

Answer:

$Cd(s)|Cd^{2+}(aq) || Cu^{2+}(aq)|Cu(s)$

Explanation:

A galvanic cell is composed of two electrodes immersed in a suitable electrolyte and connected via a salt bridge. One of the electrodes serves as a cathode where reduction or gain of electrons takes place. The other half cell functions as an anode where oxidation or loss of electrons occurs.

The representation is given by writing the anode on left hand side followed by its ion with its molar concentration. It is followed by a salt bridge. Then the cathodic ion with its molar concentration is written and then the cathode.

As it is given that cadmium acts as anode, it must be on the left hand side and copper must be on right hand side.

$Cd(s)|Cd^{2+}(aq) || Cu^{2+}(aq)|Cu(s)$
