Galvanic Cell Diagram Equation. R s r aq e cathode reaction reduction. A cell notation of a galvanic cell is as follows.
Zn s zn 2 aq 1 0 m sn 2 aq 1 0 m sn s i. Galvanic cell and redox reaction. E s aq s s.
Write the overall cell equation.
Rather than drawing a complete diagram like the figures in the galvanic cells section it is convenient to specify a galvanic cell in shorthand form. Zn s cu 2 aq zn 2 aq cu s. R s r aq e cathode reaction reduction. Identify the oxidising agent.
