Vedclass · Answer

(A) In a galvanic cell,the electrode with the higher reduction potential acts as the cathode,and the electrode with the lower reduction potential acts as the anode.Given $E_A = +2.23 \ V$ and $E_B = -1.43 \ V$.Since $E_A > E_B$,$A$ acts as the cathode and $B$ acts as the anode.The standard cell potential is calculated as:$E^o_{cell} = E^o_{cathode} - E^o_{anode}$$E^o_{cell} = E_A - E_B$$E^o_{cell} = 2.23 \ V - (-1.43 \ V)$$E^o_{cell} = 2.23 + 1.43 = 3.66 \ V$.

$A$ galvanic cell with electrode potential of $A = + 2.23 \ V$ and $B = - 1.43 \ V$. The value of $E^o_{cell}$ is .............. $V$.
