Q1
In a galvanic cell, the anode is where:
  1. Reduction occurs
  2. Oxidation occurs
  3. Electrons are gained
  4. The salt bridge is located

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a galvanic cell, the anode is where:
Correct Answer: Oxidation occurs at the anode.
  • Step 1: Understand what a galvanic cell is. It is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy through a redox reaction.
  • Step 2: Identify the two main parts of a galvanic cell: the anode and the cathode.
  • Step 3: Know that the anode is the electrode where oxidation occurs. Oxidation means losing electrons.
  • Step 4: Remember that in a galvanic cell, electrons flow from the anode to the cathode.
  • Step 5: Conclude that since oxidation occurs at the anode, it is the site of electron loss.
