Zinc is the anode.
Yes, the Standard Calomel Electrode (SCE) can act as a cathode in certain electrochemical cells. When connected to a suitable anode in a galvanic cell or connected to a positive terminal in an electrolytic cell, the SCE can gain electrons and undergo reduction at its surface.
Electrode potential refers to the voltage developed at an electrode when it is immersed in an electrolyte solution, reflecting its tendency to gain or lose electrons. In a galvanic cell, the electromotive force (EMF) is the overall voltage generated by the cell, which is the difference between the electrode potentials of the two half-cells (anode and cathode). The EMF indicates the cell's ability to drive an electrochemical reaction and can be measured under standard conditions. A higher EMF implies a greater tendency for the cell to produce electrical energy.
A galvanic cell is a spontaneous reaction so electron flow will occur as long as a salt bridge is present.
Electrons flow in the opposite direction.
In a galvanic cell involving magnesium (Mg) and zinc (Zn), the cathode is the electrode where reduction occurs. In this case, zinc acts as the cathode because it has a higher reduction potential compared to magnesium. Therefore, zinc ions in solution gain electrons and are reduced to solid zinc at the cathode, while magnesium oxidizes at the anode.
In a galvanic cell, the anode is the negative electrode.
