Choose the correct option ,
a) Oxidation takes places at anode
b) Electrons are lost at anode
c) If x has electrode potential of -0.23 V and if Y has electrode potential of -0.13V , x is a better oxidizing agent than y
a,b,c

a,c
As we have learned
Faraday's Second Law -
According to Faraday's second law, "When the same quantity of electricity is passed through different electrolytes, the amounts of the products obtained at the electrodes are directly proportional to their chemical equivalents or equivalent weights".
-
Anode -
In a galvanic cell, the half cell in which oxidation takes place is called anode.
-It is easier to reduce y and so, it is a better oxidizing agent.
Therefore,option(2) is correct.
