Chemistry Question on Galvanic Cells

What is the cell reaction occurring in Daniel cell (Galvanic cell)?

A

Cu(s)+ZnSO4(aq)→CuSO4(aq)+Zn(s)Cu(s)+ZnSO_{4}(aq)\to CuSO_{4}(aq)+Zn(s)

B

Zn(s)+CuSO4(aq)→Cu(s)+ZnSO4(aq)Zn(s)+CuSO_{4}(aq)\to Cu(s)+ZnSO_{4}(aq)

C

Ni(s)+ZnSO4(aq)→NiSO4(aq)+Zn(s)Ni(s)+ZnSO_{4}(aq)\to NiSO_{4}(aq)+Zn(s)

D

2Na(s)+CdSO4(aq)→Na2SO4(aq)2Na(s)+CdSO_{4}(aq)\to Na_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + Cd(s)+\,Cd(s)

Answer

Zn(s)+CuSO4(aq)→Cu(s)+ZnSO4(aq)Zn(s)+CuSO_{4}(aq)\to Cu(s)+ZnSO_{4}(aq)

Explanation

Solution

In Galvanic cell (Daniel cell) the electrical energy is produced from chemical reactions. or Zn(s)+CuSO4(aq)→Cu(s)+ZnSO4(aq)Zn(s)+CuSO_{4}(aq)\to Cu(s)+ZnSO_{4}(aq)
