Question 28
H

Which half equation represents the reaction of oxide ions at the positive electrode?

[1]
A

O2−→O+2e−\text{O}^{2-} \rightarrow \text{O} + 2\text{e}^-O2−→O+2e−

B

2O2−+4e−→O22\text{O}^{2-} + 4\text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{O}_22O2−+4e−→O2​

C

2O2−→O2+4e−2\text{O}^{2-} \rightarrow \text{O}_2 + 4\text{e}^-2O2−→O2​+4e−

D

O2−→O2+2e−\text{O}^{2-} \rightarrow \text{O}_2 + 2\text{e}^-O2−→O2​+2e−
