The first metal electrode, given the label A, was found to have increased in mass; the second metal electrode, given the label B, did not change in mass; and the third metal electrode, given the label C, was found to have lost mass. Make an educated guess as to which electrodes were active and which were inert electrodes, and which were anode(s) and which were the cathode(s).arrow_forwardGiven the following two standard reduction potentials, solve for the standard reduction potential of the half-reaction M3++eM2+ (Hint: You must use the extensive property G to determine the standard reduction potential.)arrow_forward
