NEET Chemistry Galvanic Cells MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about electrochemical cells is correct?
In galvanic cells, oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction at the cathode.
The lead storage battery cannot be recharged once discharged.
Cell potential of Daniell cell increases with decreasing concentration of Cu²⁺ ions.
The law of independent migration of ions applies only to solid electrolytes.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In electrochemical cells, oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction at the cathode, as stated in the context of galvanic cells. The lead storage battery can be recharged, and the cell potential in the Daniell cell increases with an increase in Cu²⁺ concentration, while the law of independent migration applies to ionic solutions.
