The Galvanic cell can be represented as Zn/Zn2+(0.1M)//Cu2+(0.1M)/Cu\mathrm{Zn} / \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(0.1 \mathrm{M}) / / \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(0.1 \mathrm{M}) / \mathrm{Cu}. Among the following, the cell that can produce an EMF more than that of the Galvanic cell is ( E0\mathrm{E}^0 of Zn2+/Zn\mathrm{Zn}^{2+} / \mathrm{Zn} and Cu2+/Cu\mathrm{Cu}^{2+} / \mathrm{Cu} are -0.763 V and 0.337 V respectively)

Options

  1. AZn/Zn2+(0.1M)//Cu2+(0.01M)/Cu\mathrm{Zn} / \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(0.1 \mathrm{M}) / / \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(0.01 \mathrm{M}) / \mathrm{Cu}
  2. BZn/Zn2+(1M)//Cu2+(0.01M)/Cu\mathrm{Zn} / \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(1 \mathrm{M}) / / \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(0.01 \mathrm{M}) / \mathrm{Cu}
  3. CZn/Zn2+(0.01M)//Cu2+(1M)/Cu\mathrm{Zn} / \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(0.01 \mathrm{M}) / / \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(1 \mathrm{M}) / \mathrm{Cu}
  4. DZn/Zn2+(0.01M)//Cu2+(0.01M)/Cu\mathrm{Zn} / \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(0.01 \mathrm{M}) / / \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(0.01 \mathrm{M}) / \mathrm{Cu}

Correct answer

C. Zn/Zn2+(0.01M)//Cu2+(1M)/Cu\mathrm{Zn} / \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(0.01 \mathrm{M}) / / \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(1 \mathrm{M}) / \mathrm{Cu}
