Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following reactions occurs at the cathode?
  • Step 1: Understand what a cathode is. The cathode is the electrode where reduction occurs in an electrochemical cell.
  • Step 2: Know that reduction means gaining electrons. This is the key process that happens at the cathode.
  • Step 3: Identify the reactions given in the question. Look for the one that involves a substance gaining electrons.
  • Step 4: Select the reaction that shows a gain of electrons. This is the reaction that occurs at the cathode.
