A reaction, `Cu^(2+)+2e^(-) rarr Cu` is given. For this reaction, graph between `E_(red)` versus `ln[Cu^(2+)]` is a straight line of intercept 0.34 V, then the electrode oxidation potential of the half-cell `Cu//Cu^(2+) (0.1 M)` will be

A

0.34

B

`0.34+0.0591/2`

C

`-0.34-0.0591/2`

D

`-0.34+0.0591/2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`Cu^(2+)+2e^(-) rarr Cu`
`E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)=E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)^(@)-(0.059)/2"log "1/([Cu^(2+)])`
`=E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)^(@)+(RT)/(2F)ln [Cu^(2+)]`
`E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)=0.34+0.059/2 log 0.1=0.31 V`
`E_(Cu//Cu^(2+))=-E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)=-0.34+0.059/2 V`
