The hydrogen electrode is dipped in a solution of pH=3pH = 3 at 25°C25 ° C. The potential of the electrode will be −-______×10−2V\times {10}^{- 2}V. (2.303RTF=0.059V)\left(\dfrac{2 . 303RT}{F} = 0 . 059V\right) Round off the answer to the nearest integer.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Given,
pH =33

⇒−log[H+]=3[H+]=10−3⇒ - log [ {H}^{+} ] = 3 [ {H}^{+} ] = {10}^{- 3}

The half cell reaction is

2H(aq.)++2e−→H2(g)2{H}_{( aq . )}^{+} + 2{e}^{-} \to {{H}_{2}}_{\left(g\right)}

We know,

the Nernst equation is
Ered=E0red+0.059log[H+]=0+0.059log10−3=+0.059×(−3)=−0.177V{E}_{red} = {E}^{0}red + 0 . 059log [ {H}^{+} ] = 0 + 0 . 059log{10}^{- 3} = + 0 . 059 \times ( - 3 ) = - 0 . 177V

=−17.7×10−2V= - 17 . 7 \times {10}^{- 2}V.
