The standard Gibbs energy for the given cell reaction in k J m o l - 1 at 298 K is: Z n s + C u 2 + a q ⟶ Z n 2 + a q + C u ( s ) , E 0 = 2 V a t 298 K ( F a r a d a y ' s c o n s t a n t , F = 96000 C m o l - 1 )
Options
- A- 192
- B192
- C384
- D- 384
Correct answer
D. - 384
Step-by-step solution
For the reaction, C u 2 + a q + Z n s ⟶ Z n 2 + a q + C u s n = 2 , two electrons are exchanged ∆ G o = - n F E o = - 2 × 96000 × 2 = - 384000 = - 384   k J
