Solution
The correct option is A The electrode potential for this cell is 1.40 V The electrode potential for this cell is 1.40 V E0cell=E0Ni−E0Al=−0.26−(−1.66)=1.40 V Ions will be carried by the salt bridge Electrons will be carried through the wire The reaction is spontaneous as the standard cell potential is positive.
