The standard reduction potential
E
θ
resembles the electrode's strength as an oxidizing agent and equivalently its tendency to get reduced. The reduction potential of a Platinum-Hydrogen Electrode under standard conditions (

) is defined as
0

V
for reference. [2]
A cell with a high reduction potential indicates a strong oxidizing agent- vice versa for a cell with low reduction potentials.
Two half cells connected with an external circuit and a salt bridge make a galvanic cell; the half-cell with the higher
E
θ
and thus higher likelihood to be reduced will experience reduction and act as the cathode, whereas the half-cell with a lower
E
θ
will experience oxidation and act the anode.

Therefore in this galvanic cell, the
Ni

half-cell will experience reduction and act as the cathode and the
Mg

the anode.
The standard cell potential of a galvanic cell equals the standard reduction potential of the cathode minus that of the anode. That is:

Answer:
C more collision between molecules
Explanation:
increase in heat causes increase in kinetic energy of the particles
The computation for this problem is:
(1.55x10^4 / 1.0x10^3) x 19.8 mm Hg
= 15.5 x 19.88 mm Hg
= 308.14 mm Hg decrease
= 308.14 x 0.05 C = 15.407 deg C
deduct this amount to 100
100 – 15.407 = 84.593 C
ANSWER: 85 deg C (rounded to 2 significant figures)
