What will be the emf of the given cell Pt | H 2 (P 1 ) | H + (aq) | H 2 (P 2 ) | Pt ?
Options
- AR T F l n P 1 P 2
- BR T 2 F l n P 1 P 2
- CR T F   l n   P 2 P 1
- DNone of these
Correct answer
B. R T 2 F l n P 1 P 2
Step-by-step solution
P t | H 2 | H + | H 2 | P t Both the electrodes share the same [ H + ] . A : H 2 → 2 H + + 2 e − Applying Nernst equation E c e l l = 0 − R T 2 F l n P H 2 c P H 2 a = − R T 2 F l n P 2 P 1 = R T 2 F l n P 1 P 2
