A galvanic cell consists of a Cu(s) |Cu2+(aq) half-cell and a Zn(s) |Zn2+(aq) half-cell, connected by a salt bridge. Oxidation occurs in the zinc half-cell. The cell can be represented in standard notation as:
A) Cu(s) |Cu2+(aq) |Zn(s) |Zn2+(aq)
B) Zn(s) |Zn2+(aq) ||Cu(s) |Cu2+(aq)
C) Cu2+(aq) |Cu(s) ||Zn(s) |Zn2+(aq)
D) Zn(s) |Zn2+(aq) ||Cu2+(aq) |Cu(s)
E) Zn2+(aq) |Zn(s) ||Cu(s) |Cu2+(aq)
