JEE Main2003ChemistryElectrochemistryActual
For the redox reaction Zn ( s )+ Cu ²⁺(0.1 M ) Zn ²⁺(1 M )+ Cu ( s ) taking place in a cell, E _ cell ^0 is 1.10 volt. E ^ for the cell will be (2.303 RT F =0.0591 )
Options
- A1.80 volt
- B1.07 volt
- C0.82 volt
- D2.14 volt
Correct answer
B. 1.07 volt
Step-by-step solution
E _ cell = E _ cell ^0+ 0.059 n [ Cu ⁺² Zn ⁺² ]=1.10+ 0.059 2 [0.1]=1.10-0.0295=1.07 ~V
