An alloy of Pb-Ag weighing 54 mg was dissolved in desired amount of HNO_(3) & volume was made upto 500ml . An Ag electrode was dipped in solution and then connected to standard hydrogen electrode anode. Then calculate % of Ag in alloy. Given: E_(cell) = 0.5V, E_(Ag^(+)//Ag)^(@) = 0.8V (2.303RT)/(F) = 0.06

The standard potential of the cell formed by combining the Cl_(2)//Cl^(-)(aq) half - cell with the standard hydrogen electrode is +1.36V and ((delE^(@))/(delT))_(P)=-1.2xx10^(-3)VK^(-1) . What is the value of DeltaS_("reaction")^(@) for reaction H_(2(g))+Cl_(2(g))rarr2H_((aq))^(+)+2Cl_((aq))^(-)

The magnitude ( but not the sign ) of the standard reduction potentials of two metals X and Y are : Y^(2)+2e^(-) rarr Y |E_(1)^(c-)|=0.34V X^(2)+2e^(-) rarr X |E_(2)^(c-)|=0.25V When the two half cells of X and Y are connected to construct a cell, eletrons flow from X to Y . When X is connected to a standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) ,electrons flow from X to SHE . If standard emf (E^(c-)) of a half cell Y^(2)|Y^(o+) is 0.15V , the standard emf of the half cell Y^(o+)|Y will be
