In a copper-zinc voltaic cell, one half-cell consists of a ZnZn electrode inserted in a solution of zinc sulfate and the other half-cell consists of a CuCu electrode inserted in a copper sulfate solution. These two half-cells are separated by a salt bridge. At the zinc electrode (anode), ZnZn metal undergoes oxidation by losing two electrons and enters the solution as Zn2+Zn2+ ions. The oxidation half-cell reaction that takes place at the anode is Zn(s)→Zn2+(aq)+2e−Zn(s)→Zn2+(aq)+2e− The CuCu ions undergo reduction...
