The cell reaction that occurs in a Daniell cell (galvanic Cell ) is :

C u (s) + Z n S O_{4} (a q .) \to C u S O_{4} (a q .) + Z n (s)

Solution

The correct option is B $Z n (s) + C u S O_{4} (a q .) \to C u (s) + Z n S O_{4} (a q .)$

One of the most popular Galvanic cell is the Daniel cell. It is built by two electrodes
$1.$ $Z n$ rod dipped in $Z n S O_{4}$ solution
$2.$ $C u$ rod dipped in $C u S O_{4}$ solution
They are connected internally by salt beidge in Daniel cell
At Anode: $Z n$ rod in $Z n S O_{4}$ solution
At Cathode : $C u$ rod in $C u S O_{4}$ solution
Thus, the redox reaction of the Daniel cell is
$Z n (s) + C u S O_{4} (a q .) \to C u (s) + Z n S o_{4} (a q .)$
