Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Understanding the internal circuit of a galvanic cell.
- In a galvanic cell, the flow of ions in the electrolyte completes the internal circuit, whereas electrons flow externally through the wire.
Step 2: Selecting the correct option.
Since ions move within the cell, the correct answer is (D).
