What is a galvanic (voltaic) cell?
It is a cell that destroys electrons on one side and creates electrons on the other side.
It is a cell that contains only one metal bar and one aqueous ion solution.
It is a type of battery that drives a redox reaction when electricity is applied.
It is a type of battery that generates an electrical current from redox reactions.
What is a standard half-cell?
It is one cell that comprises half of a whole battery.
It is a cell containing only a metal bar with no aqueous ion solution.
It is a cell containing only an aqueous ion solution and no metal bar.
It is a cell that generates half of a volt of electricity.
What is a half-reaction?
It is a reaction at equilibrium where half of the substances are reactants and half of the substances are products.
It is the reaction that occurs when the switch of a galvanic cell is open.
It shows EITHER the reduction component or the oxidation component of a redox reaction.
It shows BOTH the reduction and oxidation components of a redox reaction.
What is an anode?
It is the electrode where oxidation takes place.
It is the electrode where reduction takes place.
It is an aqueous solution containing an electrode.
It is the salt bridge that connects half-cells.
What is a cathode?
It is the electrode where oxidation takes place.
It is the electrode where reduction takes place.
