Which of the following reaction is possible at anode? (a) $\mathrm{F}_{2}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{~F}^{-}$ (b) $2 \mathrm{H}^{+}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$
Based on the cell notation for a spontaneous reaction, at the anode : $\mathrm{Ag}(s)|\mathrm{AgCl}(s)| \mathrm{Cl}^{-}(a q) \| \mathrm{Br}^{-}(a q)\left|\mathrm{Br}_{2}(l)\right| \mathrm{C}(s)$ (a) $\mathrm{AgCl}$ becomes reduced (b) $\mathrm{Ag}$ becomes oxidized (c) $\mathrm{Br}^{-}$ becomes oxidized (d) $\mathrm{Br}_{2}$ becomes reduced
Reactions at Electrodes during Electrolysis Answer the following questions by selecting the appropriate half-reaction. Assume that in each case the experiment is performed in an electrolysis cell having electrodes made of non-reacting material. Which half-reaction will take place at the anode during the electrolysis of 1.0 M AgNO3? 2H2O -> O2 + 4H+ + 4e- Which half-reaction will take place at the cathode during the electrolysis of 1.0 M AgNO3? Ag+ + e- -> Ag Which half-reaction will take place at the anode during the electrolysis of molten MgCl2? 2Cl- -> Cl2 + 2e- Which half-reaction will take place at the anode during the electrolysis of molten KF? 2F- -> F2 + 2e-
