Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistryElectrochemistry
An electrochemical cell is formed by the combination of Zn and Ag . For this cell H=-n F E_ cell Here H = Enthalpy change E _ cell =e . m . f of the cell that is 1.1 V Select the correct statement(s) about this cell
Options
- AEntropy change of the cell reaction is zero
- BTemperature coefficient of the cell is zero
- CG is negative for the cell reaction
- DEntropy change of the cell reaction is non-zero
Correct answer
C. G is negative for the cell reaction
Step-by-step solution
S = nF ( E _ cell ~T )_ P G =- nFE _ cell = H - T ~S If H=-n F E_ cell , it means S=0
