Question
which action occurs at an electrode of a galvanic cell? (1 point)
anion transfer
anion flow
electron transfer
Brief Explanations
In a galvanic cell, oxidation occurs at the anode (losing electrons) and reduction occurs at the cathode (gaining electrons). This involves electron transfer between the electrodes. Anion transfer and anion flow are related to the movement in the electrolyte (not at the electrode surface). Electron transfer is the key process happening at the electrodes.
