Answer:
Anode half reaction;
Co(s) ----> Co^2+(aq) + 2e
Cathode half reaction;
2Ag^+(aq) + 2e-------> 2Ag(s)
Explanation:
A voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell that spontaneously produces electrical energy from chemical reactions. A voltaic cell comprises of an anode (where oxidation occurs) and a cathode (where reduction occurs). The both electrodes are connected with a wire . A salt bridge ensures charge neutrality in the anode and cathode compartments. Electrons flow from anode to cathode.
For the cell referred to in the question;
Anode half reaction;
Co(s) ----> Co^2+(aq) + 2e
Cathode half reaction;
2Ag^+(aq) + 2e-------> 2Ag(s)
