In an electrochemical cell, the direction which electrons travel is: (a) from the anode to the cathode through the external circuit.

Electrons can be defined as the subatomic particles of a chemical element that are negatively charged and have a magnitude of -1.

An electrochemical cell refers to a device that is capable of either generating electric current from the electrical energy released by a spontaneous redox reaction or using an electrical energy to cause chemical reactions.

Generally, an electrochemical cell is also referred to as a secondary cell and a good example is a rechargeable battery.

In Science, the direction of flow of current is usually from the anode (positive side) to the cathode (negative side) in an electrical circuit.

On a related, current is made up of electrons and as such the direction which electrons travel is usually from the anode to the cathode through the external electrical circuit.

(a) from the anode to the cathode through the external circuit

Explanation:

In an electrochemical cell, there are two half cells; the oxidation half cell and reduction half cell. Oxidation typically refers to loss of electrons and reduction refers to gain of electrons.

Electrons always flow from the anode to the cathode or from the oxidation half cell to the reduction half cell.

The electrical circuit in an electrochemical cell confirms the flow of electron. Usually a light bulb is attached. The correct option is;

(a) from the anode to the cathode through the external circuit

Answer:

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

explanation:

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.

You exhale co2 which is produced during cellular respiration. co2 combines with the water in your blood's plasma to make up one half of the body's most important buffer pair, carbonic acid. the more physical activity you engage in, the more co2 your body is producing. you can see this by putting some of the cabbage indicator in a glass and then blowing bubbles into it through a straw. can you see a change in the color of the indicator?
