Switch KNO, Salt Bridge Cu Sn 1.0 M Cu(NO,), 1.0 M Sn(NO,)2 A student is given a standard galvanic cell, represented above, that has a Cu electrode and a Sn electrode. As current flows through the cell, the student determines that the Cu electrode increases in mass and the Sn electrode decreases in mass.
