Which of the following statements is true when the battery
discharges?
Group of answer choices
Hg(l) is the anode. ZnO(s) is the cathode.
ZnO(s) is the anode; HgO(s) is the rcathode.
Zn(s) is the cathode; HgO(s) is the anode
ZnO(s) is the cathode; HgO(s) is the anode.
Zn(s) is the anode; HgO(s) is the cathode.
