Answer:
(i) Electrons move from Zn to Ag as
E° is more negative for Zn, so Zn undergoes oxidation and Ag+ undergoes
reduction.
(ii) Ag is the cathode as it is
the site of reduction where Ag+ takes electrons from medium and
deposit at cathode.
(iii) Cell will stop
functioning because cell potential drops to zero. At E = 0 reaction reaches
equilibrium.
(iv) When because at this condition
reaction reaches to equilibrium.
(v) Concentration of Zn2+
ions will increase and concentration of Ag+ ions will decrease because
Zn is converted into Zn2+and Ag+ is converted into Ag.
(vi) When equilibrium is reached
and concentration of Zn2+ ions and Ag+ will not change.
