Answer 1

In an electrochemical cell diagram, the cathode is typically the electrode where reduction occurs, which is where positive ions gain electrons.

In the context of your options, **solid Cu (copper)** would be the cathode if we assume it's in a system where copper ions are being reduced to solid copper.

Therefore, the answer is:
- **solid Cu** (solid uppercase C lowercase u).
