Two electrodes in electrolyte solutions
Electrons flow in the opposite direction.
The voltage of a galvanic cell made with magnesium (Mg) as the anode and gold (Au) as the cathode can be estimated using standard reduction potentials. Magnesium has a standard reduction potential of -2.37 V, while gold has a standard reduction potential of +1.50 V. The overall cell potential can be calculated by subtracting the anode potential from the cathode potential, resulting in a voltage of approximately +3.87 V for the cell. This positive voltage indicates that the cell can generate electrical energy.
In a galvanic cell with an anode made of zinc (Zn) and a cathode made of nickel (Ni), the half-reactions are as follows: at the anode, zinc undergoes oxidation, represented by the reaction ( \text{Zn} \rightarrow \text{Zn}^{2+} + 2\text{e}^- ). At the cathode, nickel ions are reduced, given by the reaction ( \text{Ni}^{2+} + 2\text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Ni} ). This creates a flow of electrons from the zinc anode to the nickel cathode, generating electrical energy.
In a standard galvanic cell using zinc and aluminum, the zinc metal will act as the anode and the aluminum metal will act as the cathode. Zinc will undergo oxidation at the anode, releasing electrons which flow through the external circuit to the cathode where aluminum will undergo reduction. This flow of electrons creates an electrical current.
The standard cell notation for a galvanic cell made with magnesium (Mg) and gold (Au) can be represented as: Mg(s) | Mg²⁺(aq) || Au³⁺(aq) | Au(s). In this notation, magnesium is the anode (oxidation occurs) and gold is the cathode (reduction occurs), with the vertical bars separating different phases and the double vertical bar indicating the salt bridge.
the gold electrode
Electrons flow in the opposite direction.
In a galvanic cell with silver and nickel electrodes, nickel is oxidized at the anode. During oxidation, nickel atoms lose electrons and become Ni2+ ions, contributing to the flow of electrons in the cell. Silver acts as the cathode where reduction reactions take place.

In a galvanic cell with silver and nickel electrodes, the nickel electrode will be oxidized. Oxidation occurs at the anode, where electrons are released as nickel atoms lose electrons and form nickel ions. Silver ions from the other electrode will capture these electrons as the reduction reaction occurs at the cathode.

The voltage of a galvanic cell made with silver and nickel will depend on the specific conditions of the cell, such as the concentrations of the electrolytes and the temperature. Typically, a cell made with silver and nickel could have a voltage range between 0.8 to 1.0 V.
The stranded cell notation for a galvanic cell made with magnesium (Mg) and gold (Au) is written as: [ \text{Mg(s)} | \text{Mg}^{2+}(aq) || \text{Au}^{3+}(aq) | \text{Au(s)} ] In this notation, the anode (Mg) is on the left side, while the cathode (Au) is on the right, with a double vertical line (||) representing the salt bridge that separates the two half-cells.
