Determine the Redox Reaction Represented by the Following Cell Notation

Question 59

Multiple Choice

Determine the redox reaction represented by the following cell notation: Mg(s) ∣ Mg2+(aq) Determine the redox reaction represented by the following cell notation: Mg(s) ∣ Mg<sup>2+</sup>(aq) Cu<sup>2+</sup>(aq) ∣ Cu(s) A) Cu(s) + Mg<sup>2+</sup>(aq) → Mg(s) + Cu<sup>2+</sup>(aq) B) Mg(s) + Cu<sup>2+</sup>(aq) → Cu(s) + Mg<sup>2+</sup>(aq) C) 2Mg(s) + Cu<sup>2+</sup>(aq) → Cu(s) + 2Mg<sup>2+</sup>(aq) D) 2Cu(s) + Mg<sup>2+</sup>(aq) → Mg(s) + 2Cu<sup>2+</sup>(aq) E) 3Mg(s) + 2Cu<sup>2+</sup>(aq) → 2Cu(s) + 3Mg<sup>2+</sup>(aq) Cu2+(aq) ∣ Cu(s)


A) Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq) → Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq)
B) Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq)
C) 2Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Cu(s) + 2Mg2+(aq)
D) 2Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq) → Mg(s) + 2Cu2+(aq)
E) 3Mg(s) + 2Cu2+(aq) → 2Cu(s) + 3Mg2+(aq)
