Manganese and copper voltaic cell
Manganese and copper voltaic cell. Copper (right) and manganese (left) half cells joined by a salt bridge. When a stick of copper (Cu) is inserted in a copper salt solution it loses electrons according to the reaction, Cu<-->Cu2+ + 2e-. So Cu metal and Cu2+ ion form a redox couple with Cu2+ as the oxidant and Cu as the reductant. The same occurs for manganese (Mn) metal and manganese salt. The copper half cell produces electrons at a faster rate than the manganese so there is a potential difference between them. When the two half cells are joined by a saturated salt " bridge" and the metals are joined by a wire, a current flows

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases a Manganese and Copper Voltaic Cell, an impressive display of the wonders of electrochemistry. The image captures two half cells, one featuring copper on the right and manganese on the left, joined together by a salt bridge. This unique setup allows for an intriguing chemical reaction to occur. As we delve into the science behind this mesmerizing phenomenon, we discover that when a stick of copper is immersed in a copper salt solution, it loses electrons. This process creates a redox couple between Cu2+ ions as oxidants and Cu metal as reductants. Similarly, manganese metal and manganese salt form their own redox couple. What makes this voltaic cell truly fascinating is that the copper half cell generates electrons at a faster rate than its counterpart made of manganese. Consequently, there exists a potential difference between these two halves. To complete this electrifying circuitry experimentally captured in the photograph, both metals are connected by wire while being united through a saturated salt "bridge". It is through this connection that an electric current flows seamlessly. This stunning visual representation not only highlights key elements such as copper and manganese but also emphasizes concepts like chemistry, potential energy conversion via batteries or cells, salts' role in facilitating reactions across different compartments (bridges), electron transfer (electrochemistry), and ultimately underscores the beauty found within inorganic chemistry's intricate workings.
