Which of the statements listed below is true regarding the following redox reaction occurring in a spontaneous electrochemical cell? Cl₂(g)+ 2 Br-(aq)→ Br₂(l)+ 2 Cl-(aq)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

- A) Br- loses electrons, thus it is oxidized, and this occurs at the anode.- B) Cl2 gains electrons, thus it is reduced, and this occurs at the cathode.- C) In an electrochemical cell, electrons always flow from the anode to the cathode.- D) The function of the salt bridge is to maintain electrical neutrality, which involves the movement of ions. While the specific movement of cations isn't detailed in the reaction, the salt bridge does facilitate ion movement to balance charge between the two half-cells.
