Question 29

Multiple Choice

Based on the following electrochemical cell,which statement is true? Based on the following electrochemical cell,which statement is true? Half-Reaction E° (V) Al<sup>3+</sup>(aq) + 3e<sup>-</sup> → Al(s) -1.66 Cd<sup>2+</sup>(aq) + 2e<sup>-</sup> → Cd(s) -0.40 A) Al(s) is oxidized and is the anode. B) Al(s) is oxidized and is the cathode. C) Cd(s) is oxidized and is the anode. D) Cd(s) is oxidized and is the cathode. E) No reaction occurs because E°<sub>cell</sub> < 0.
