MCAT Question of the Day


  • Q:

    In an electrochemical concentration cell, two identical half reactions are set up with differing concentrations. This is different from galvanic cells which have two different half-cells in the circuit. In a concentration cell, the current is driven by which of the following?

     

    A

    Electrostatic attraction of electrons to the cell of lower concentration.

    B

    Equalization of the cell concentrations due to entropy.

    C

    Movement of metal ions from high to low concentration.

    D

    Movement of metal ions from low to high concentration.
