State True or False.

In a galvanic cell, the half-cell with higher reduction potential acts as a reducing agent.

Q. Select among the following statements that characterize a galvanic cell?
I: Oxidation occurs at the anode, which is negative.
II: Oxidation occurs at the anode, which is positive.
III. Reduction occurs at the cathode, which is positive.

Q. Assertion :Galvanic cell convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Reason: Redox reactions are those in which oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode.

Q. Assertion :Anode is the electrode at which oxidation occurs and cathode is the electrode at which reduction occurs. Reason: Anode and cathode in electrochemical cells and electrolytic cells have opposite polarity.

Q. Reduction occurs at cathode in:
