Consider the following relations for `emf` of a electrochemical cell
(i) emf of cell = (Oxidation potential of anode)-(Reduction potential of cathode)
(ii) emf of cell = (Oxidation potential of anode)+(Reduction potential of cathode)
(iii) emf of cell = (Reduction potential of anode)+(Reduction potential of cathode)
(iv) emf of cell = (Oxidation potential of anode)-(Oxidation potential of cathode)
Which of the above realtions are correct?

A

(iii) and (i)

B

(i) and (ii)

C

(iii) and (iv)

D

(ii) and (iv)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

We know that oxidation potential =- reduction potential and vice versa
`therefore`EMF of the cell =Reduction potential of cathode - Reduction potential of anode =Reduction potential of cathode + Oxidation potential of anode =Oxdiation potential of anode - oxidation potential of cathode
Thus option (d) is correct
