Answer: Gold act as cathode.
Explanation:
Standard potential for an electrochemical cell is given by:
= standard electrode potential =
The 
values have to be reduction potentials.
Reduction potentials for given elements
The element Be with negative reduction potential will lose electrons undergo oxidation and thus act as anode.The element Au with positive reduction potential will gain electrons undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.
Cathode : 
Anode : 
Thus gold act as cathode.
First, we calculate of the concentration of the H+ ions in the solution from the pH given. Then, calculate the new concentration after dilution. Calculation are as follows:
pH = -log[H+]
5 = -log[H+]
[H+] = 1 x 10^-5 M
M1V1 = M2V2
<span>1 x 10^-5 M (V1) = M2(100V1)
</span>M2 = 1 x 10^-7
pH = -log[<span>1 x 10^-7</span>]
pH = 7
