Question

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation. \mathrm{Mg}(s)\left|\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}(\mathrm{aq}) \| \mathrm{Ag}^{+}(\mathrm{aq})\right| \mathrm{Ag}(s) a. Write the balanced oxidation and reduction half-reactions, labeling the oxidation reaction and the reduction reaction. (4

points) b. What is the standard potential for the cell? (2 points) Is this a spontaneous or non spontaneous reaction? Explain your answer. (2 points) d. Is this a galvanic cell or an electrolytic cell? Explain your answer.(2 points) e. Write a balanced redox equation for the cell using the oxidation and reduction half-reactions. (Be sure to equalize charge by multiplying by the correct numbers before adding and simplifying.) (6 points)
