Write the reactions that take place at the anode and at the cathode, the direction in which
the electrons migrate in the external circuit, and the direction the anions in the salt bridge
migrate.
Use smallest possible integer coefficients.
If a box is not needed, leave it blank.
Enter the reaction that takes place at the anode. Include state symbols:
