What would you observe if you set up the following electrochemical cell:

Ag|AgNO3(0.001 M)||AgNO3(1 M)|Ag?

A) Electrons will flow from right to left, causing an increase in the AgNO3 concentration in the left cell, and a decrease in the AgNO3 concentration in the right cell.

B) Electrons will flow from right to left, causing a decrease in the AgNO3 concentration in the left cell, and an increase in the AgNO3 concentration in the right cell.

C) Electrons will flow from left to right, causing a decrease in the AgNO3 concentration in the left cell, and an increase in the AgNO3 concentration in the right cell.

D) There will be no electron flow because the reduction potential at both electrodes is the same.

E) Electrons will flow from left to right, causing an increase in the AgNO3 concentration in the left cell, and a decrease in AgNO3 concentration in the right cell.
