    In dry cell, the reaction which takes place at the graphite anode is

    A)  \[Z{{n}^{2+}}+2{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Zn(s)\]

    B)  \[Zn(s)+2{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Zn(s)\]

    C)  \[M{{n}^{2+}}+2{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Mn(s)\]

    D)  \[Mn(s)\xrightarrow{{}}M{{n}^{+}}+{{e}^{-}}1.5V\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[Zn(s)\xrightarrow{{}}Z{{n}^{2+}}+2{{e}^{-}}\]Because in dry cell at graphite anode  (\[-ve\] electrode) oxidation occurs.
