Question:

The nonspontaneous redox reaction of nickel and aqueous iron(II) sulfate is an electrolytic process according to the following equation. 

Ni(s) + FeSO4(aq) → Fe(s) + NiSO4(aq) 

The half-reactions are separated into two compartments. A Ni electrode is placed in 1.00 M NiSO4, and an Fe electrode in 1.00 M FeSO4. Indicate each of the following for the electrolytic cell.

(a) Oxidation half-cell reaction

(b) Reduction half-cell reaction

(c) Anode and cathode

(d) Direction of electron flow

(e) Direction of SO42– in the salt bridge.
