<span>Answer: Cobalt (Co). Carbon (C), Iodine (I), and Si (Si) are non-metal elements. A particular characteristic of non-metals is that they are brittle when they are in the solid form. Then they will break instead of bending. On the other hand, Cobalt (Co) is a metal. Most metals are ductile and malleable, which means that in their solid form they can be bend and transformed into thin sheets and wires without braking.</span>

A galvanic cell consists of one half-cell that contains Ag(s) and Ag+(aq), and one half-cell that contains Cu(s) and Cu2+(aq). W

Agata [3.3K]

Answer : The 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Explanation :

Galvanic cell : It is defined as a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produces in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. It is also known as the voltaic cell or electrochemical cell.

In the galvanic cell, the oxidation occurs at an anode which is a negative electrode and the reduction occurs at the cathode which is a positive electrode.

We are taking the value of standard reduction potential form the standard table.

$E^0_{[Ag^{+}/Ag]}=+0.80V$

$E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=+0.34V$

In this cell, the component that has lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that is added to the anode electrode. The second forms the cathode electrode.

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction (Anode) : $Cu(s)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2e^-$
