how to determine anode and cathode in a SCE?
Answered by DrBob222
An SCE is only ONE half cell. Two half cells are required to make a cell. The SCE may be EITHER an anode OR a cathode depending upon the other electrode. The anode is the electrode at which oxidation occurs and the cathode is the electrode at which reduction occurs.

So if Ag2CrO4 the metal wire in a SCE is used then that and Hg2Cl2 would have to be either the anode or cathode.

Where did the Ag2CrO4 come from?
