Question

Label the parts represented by (1), (2), and (3).

A

Zinc rod $NH_{4}Cl + MgCl_{2}$ Graphite rod

B

Carbon rod $NH_{4}OH +$ carbon Zinc rod

C

Carbon rod $MnO_{2} + C + NH_{4}Cl$ Zinc can

D

Zinc rod $MnO_{2} + NH_{4}Cl$ Carbon rod

Answer

Carbon rod $MnO_{2} + C + NH_{4}Cl$ Zinc can

Explanation

Solution

It is a dry cell in which zinc can is anode carbon or graphite rod is cathode and a paste of $NH_{4}Cl + C + MnO_{2}$ acts as an electrolyte.
