Hi sir....i dont understand the video clip for 4:32.....if the electrons flow from the anode to cathode...then shouldnt the anode be in positive terminal and cathode should be the negative terminal? Because u put that the direction of electron flow is from zinc to copper.
Hi Hannah. Electrons do not flow from positive to negative terminal. Current flows from positive to negative terminal. Electron is a negatively charged particle and flows in the opposite direction to current (negative to positive).
Great Video, I just have one question. Hypothetically, if we had a Mg and Zn simple cell (one beaker) in a dilute acid, would the electrons on Mg go to Zinc or would the Mg react and reduce the H+ ions in the acid instead. I am presuming Mg would directly reduce H+ because Zinc is more reactive than Hydrogen. Also there is a bigger difference in reactivity between H+ and Mg too. ???????
This was great Mr Ruel, perhaps you should make a video differentiating the chemical cell & electrolytic cell, I’m sure many would benefit from it. Great vid tho!
Thank you! I will put it on my list. I do have a video explaining most of the differences through a practice question. You can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/-uYi0Ym8Mho/w-d-xo.html
Can I will try to do one on purification of metal. I have done one on a combination of chemical cell and electrolytic cell : th-cam.com/video/-uYi0Ym8Mho/w-d-xo.html

well explained, thank you, sir
Thank you for taking the time to drop a comment! 😊
I hope more of my videos will benefit you.
Thanks teacher,finally understand what’s chemical cell is 😂😂❤❤
sir , can u do a video on electrochemistry spm like question ? (F4C6 )

@@MrRuelTuition okay sir ,tq.
