Answer:
0.72 g of the lower oxide gave 0.8 g of higher oxide when oxidised. ... Thus, 90g of lower oxide contains as much metal as 100g of higher oxide, i.e., 80g (given). Hence, 80g of metal combines with 10g of oxygen in the lower oxide and 20g of oxygen in the higher oxide.
Zinc is no longer the positive electrode because copper has a more positive (higher) value than zinc (anode). The anode value is reduced by the potential of the other electrode.
<h3>In a galvanic cell, is the anode positive or negative?</h3>
In a galvanic (voltaic) cell, the cathode is regarded as positive and the anode as negative. This seems reasonable given that the cathode is where electrons flow from the anode, which is where they originate.
<h3>What is a galvanic cell?</h3>
An electrochemical cell called a galvanic cell or voltaic cell, respectively named after the scientists Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta produces an electric current by spontaneous oxidation-reduction reactions. A typical device typically consists of two distinct metals that are submerged in separate beakers that each contains their own metal ions in solution and are either connected by a salt bridge or divided by a porous membrane.

Answer:
C. substances that are used up in a reaction
Explanation:
Substances are combined in a chemical reaction to give rise to other substances. The substances that come together are called REACTANTS while the substances that are produced are called PRODUCTS.
Reactants are used up in the reaction to give rise to new products at the end of the reaction. For example, in the reaction as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
CO2 (carbon dioxide) and water (H2O) are the REACTANTS of the reaction, which are used up to form glucose and oxygen (products)
