The correct representation of Nernst`s equaion is .

A

`E_(M^(n+) //M) = E_( M^(n+)//M)^@ + n/( 0.591) log (M^(n+))`

B

`E_(M^(n+)) //M) = E_(M^(n+)//M)^@ + n/( 0.591) log (M^(n+))`

C

`E_(M^(n+) //M) = E_(M^(n+)//M)^@ + n/( 0.591) log (M^(n+))`

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

` E=E^@ - (RT)/(nF) In 1/([M^(n+)]) , E=E^@ + (RT)/(nF) In [M^(n+)]`
`E=E^@ + ( 2.303 RT)/(nF) log [M^(n+)]`
Substituting the value of `R,T (298 K)` and `F` we get
`E=E^@ + ( 0.591)/n log (M^(n+))`.
