Both a & b
Density of the electrodes
What reaction occurs at the anode?
Ag+/Ag = 0.80V
Ni2+/Ni = -0.25V
Ag+ + e- →Ag
Ag → Ag+ + e-
Ni2+ + 2e- → Ni
Ni → Ni2+ + 2e-
An oxidizing agent will
increase in mass
lose electrons
be reduced
increase in oxidation number
As an element is oxidized, its oxidation number
decreases as electrons are lost
increases as electrons are lost
decreases as electrons are gained
increases as electrons are gained
