Determine whether this is a galvanic or an electrolytic cell and give the reaction occurring at the anode and the reaction occurring at the cathode.
A) Electrolytic cell
Anode reaction: K(s) → K+(l) + e-
Cathode reaction: Cl2(g) + 2e- → 2 Cl-(l)
B) Electrolytic cell
Anode reaction: 2 Cl-(l) → Cl2(g) + 2e-
Cathode reaction: K+(l) + e- → K(s)
C) Galvanic cell
Anode reaction: K(s) → K+(l) + e-
Cathode reaction: Cl2(g) + 2e- → 2 Cl-(l)
D) Galvanic cell
Anode reaction: K(s) → K+(l) + e-
