A much-studied cell in electrochemistry has the following cell notation:
Ag(s)| AgCl(s)| HCl(aq)| H₂(g)| Pt(s)
Bearing in mind that HCl(aq)consists of H⁺(aq)and Cl^-(aq),and that this solution is in contact with both electrodes (there is no salt bridge),write down balanced equations for
a.the anode half-reaction.
b.the cathode half-reaction.
c.the cell reaction.
