MCAT Question of the Day


  • Q:

    In a concentration electrochemical cell, two half-reactions contain the same electrode composition and ion content. The only difference is in the concentration of the ion solutions. This drives electron flow as the concentrations of the solutions reach equilibrium. In such a setup, which of the following is true?

     

    A

    Electrons flow from the solution with higher concentration to the solution with the lower concentration

    B

    Electrons flow from the cathode to the anode

    C

    Electrons flow from the anode to the cathode

    D

    Copper ions flow from the higher-concentration solution to the lower-concentration solution.
