Which among the following statement is true for Galvanic cell?
Options
- AThe anode is negative and cathode is positive.
- BElectrical energy is converted into chemical energy.
- CThe anode is positive and cathode is negative.
- DOxidation takes place at positive electrode and reduction takes place at negative electrode.
Correct answer
A. The anode is negative and cathode is positive.
Step-by-step solution
- In galvanic cell anode is negative at which oxidation takes place and cathode is positive at which reduction takes place. In galvanic cell chemical energy is converted into chemical energy
