Answer:
the charge will be neutral.
Explanation:According a book, metals want to “lose” electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. But at the same time, copper ions in a galvanic element are going to gain electrons from a zinc electrode. Why is it so? Is it because one of them HAS to gain/lose electrons, and zinc wins out in terms of achieving noble gas configuration?
