An electrochemical cell is set up as: Pt; H 2 (1 atm)|HCl(0.1 M)|| C H 3 C O O H (0.1 M)| H 2 (1 atm); Pt. The e.m.f. of this cell will not be zero, because
Options
- Aacids used in two compartments are different
- Be.m.f. depends on molarities of acids used
- Cthe temperature is constant
- DpH of 0.1 M HCl and 0.1 M C H 3 C O O H is not same
Correct answer
D. pH of 0.1 M HCl and 0.1 M C H 3 C O O H is not same
Step-by-step solution
Since it is a concentration cell and the concentration of ions in two electrolyte solutions (HCl and C H 3 C O O H ) are different, therefore e.m.f. of this cell will not be zero.
