Given below are two statements: Statement-I : In electrochemical cells, Gibbs energy of spontaneous redox reaction is converted into electrical work. Statement-II : Gibb's energy can be calculated by using ( G =- nFE ) & it is an intensive property. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Step-by-step solution

Statement-I: In electrochemical cells, spontaneous redox reactions generate an electric potential difference. The Gibbs energy ( ( G )) of the reaction is converted into electrical work, which is measured as the electromotive force (EMF) of the cell. This is a fundamental principle of electrochemistry. Statement-II: The Gibbs energy ( ( G )) can indeed be calculated using the equation: ( G =- nFE ) where: n = number of electrons transferred F = Faraday constant ( (96485 C / mol )) E = cell potential (in volts) Gibb
