A cell is to be constructed to show a redox change `:`
`Cr+2Cr^(3+)hArr3Cr^(2+)`. The number of cells with different `E^(c-)` an `n` but same value of `DeltaG^(c-)` can be made `(` Given `E^(c-)._(Cr^(3+)|Cr^(2+))=-0.40V,E^(c-)._(Cr^(3+)|Cr)=-0.74V,` adn `E^(c-)._(Cr^(2+)|Cr)=-0.91V)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

`Cr|Cr^(3+)||Cr^(3+),Cr^(2+)|Pt(I),`
`Cr|Cr^(2+)||Cr^(3+)|Cr(II),`
`Cr|Cr^(2+)||Cr^(3+),Cr^(2+)|Pt(III,`
`(I) Crrarr Cr^(3+)+3e^(-),E^(c-)=+0.74V`
`3Cr^(3+)+3e^(-) rarr 3Cr^(2+),E^(c-)=-0.40V`
`ulbar(Cr+2Cr^(3+)rarr 3Cr^(2+)(n=3))`
`E^(c-)=0.74-0.4=0.34V`
`DeltaG^(c-)=3xx0.34xxF`
`=1.02F`
`(II)` `3Crrarr3Cr^(2+)+6e^(-),E^(c-)=-0.91V`
`2Cr^(3+)+6e^(-) rarr 2Cr,E^(c-)=-0.74V`
`ulbar(Cr+2Cr^(3+)rarr 3Cr^(2+)(n=6))`
`E^(c-)=0.91-0.74=0.17V`
`DeltaG^(c-)=0.17xx6xxF`
`=1.02F`
`(III)` `Cr rarr Cr^(2+)+2e^(-), E^(c-)=0.91V`
`2Cr^(3+)+2e^(-) rarr 2Cr^(2+),E^(c-)=-0.40V`
`ulbar(Cr+2Cr^(3+) rarr 3Cr^(2+)(n=2))`
`E^(c-)=0.91-0.40=0.51V`
DeltaG^(c-)=2xx0.51xxF`
`=1.02F`

What is the value of E^(@) cell in the following reaction? Cr|Cr^(3+) (0.1 M)||Fe^(2+) (0.01 M)|Fe Given, E_(Cr^(3+)//Cr)^(@)=-0.74 V, E_(Fe^(2+)//Fe)^(@)=-0.44 V

What is the potential for the cell Cr|Cr^(3+)(0.1M)||Fe^(2+)(0.01M)|Fe E^(@)Cr^(3+)// Cr=-0.74V , E^(@)Fe^(2+)//Fe=-0.44V

The EMF of the cell, Cr|Cr^(+3) (0.1M) ||Fe^(+2) (0.01M)|Fe (Given: E^(0) Cr^(+3)|Cr =- 0.75 V, E^(0) Fe^(+2)|Fe =- 0.45 V)

Find out work done for the given cell Cr| Cr^(+3)|| Fe^(+2)| Fe E_(Cr//Cr^(2+))^(@) = 0.74V, E_(Fe^(2+)//Fe)^(@) = -0.44V

Construct the cell corresponding to the reaction : 3Cr^(2+)(1M)rarr 2Cr^(3+)(1M)+Cr(s) and predict if the reaction is spontaneous. Also calculate the following (i) Delta H and Delta S of the reaction at 25^(@)C . Given E_(Cr^(3+),Cr)^(@)=0.5 V, E_(Cr^(3+),Cr^(2+))=-0.41 V Delta G of the reaction at 35^(@)C =-270.50 kJ

Under standered condition Delta G^(@) for the reaction 2Cr(s)= 3Cd^(2+)(aq) rarr 2Cr_((a a))^(3+) +3Cd(s) is (E_(Cr^(3+)//Cr)^(@) = - 0.74 V, E_(Cd^(2+)//Cd)^(@) = - 0.4 V)
