A half-cell consisting of a Mn(s) electrode in Mn²+ (aq) is connected to a half-cell consisting of a Ni(s) electrode in Ni²+ (aq). This produces a voltaic cell in the which the following overall reaction occurs. Mn(s) + Ni²+ (aq) → Mn²+ (aq) + Ni(s) Which half-cell is the oxidation half-cell? Which half-cell is the reduction half-cell? Which electrode (solid metal) is the cathode? Which electrode (solid metal) is the anode? What is the sign (+ or -) on the manganese electrode? What is the sign (+ or -) on the nickel electrode?
