Which species would act as the cathode in the following reaction?
?
4 Au(s) + 16 Cl -
(aq) + 3 O 2 (g) + 6 H 2 O( l ) ? 4 AuCl 4
-
(aq) + 12 OH -
(aq)
Select one:
a. Pt(s)
b. Cl -
(aq)
c. O 2 (g)
d. Au(s)
Solution
Cathode is a negatively charged electrode at which the reduction takes place that is the cathode
provides the electron to the positively charged ions
In this cell reaction the Au(s) converted to Au 3+ ion.
When the Au3+ ion moves toward the Au(s) the the reduction takes place hence the Au(s) act as
cathode
Which species would act as the cathode in the following reaction- - 4.docx
