The cathode has the reduction potential:
Correct answer: C. More than anode
- A. Less than anode
- B. The same as anode
- C. More than anode
- D. Always zero
Explanation
At cathode reduction takes place hence it has greater Eered than anode.

About Electrochemistry
Electrochemistry describes electron transfer through oxidation and reduction, identifies oxidizing and reducing agents, and applies oxidation numbers to balance redox equations. It also covers electrode potential and the standard hydrogen electrode, which provides the reference for comparing the reduction tendencies of other electrodes.
