Question

A variable, opposite external potential (Eext) is applied to the cell Zn|Zn2+ (1 M) || Cu2+ (1M) | Cu, of potential 1.1 V. When Eext < 1.1 V and Eext > 1.1 V respectively electrons flow from :

Options

A.Cathode to anode in both cases
B.cathode to anode and anode to cathode
C.anode to cathode and cathode to anode
D.anode to cathode in both cases

Solution
