Which of the following statement is not correct about an inert electrode in a cell?

Options

  1. AIt does not participate in the cell reaction.
  2. BIt provides surface either for oxidation or for reduction reaction.
  3. CIt provides surface for conduction of electrons.
  4. DIt provides surface for redox reaction

Correct answer

D. It provides surface for redox reaction

Step-by-step solution

Inert electrodes provide surface for oxidation or reduction reaction but not for redox reaction. Hence, option (d) is incorrect.
