Preferential cathode and anode are formed based on the potential value of a metal electrode.

Preferential cathode and anode are formed based on the potential value of a metal electrode. Correct Answer True

Electrode with relatively high reduction potential preferentially act as a cathode and the other electrode will act as an anode. The effect of galvanic coupling can be minimized by selecting metal combinations with less potential difference.
