The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the electrochemical cell, we need to calculate the cell potential (E_cell) and the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) based on the given concentrations of the ions involved. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the Cell Reactions In an electrochemical cell, we have two half-reactions: one at the anode and one at the cathode. The anode is where oxidation occurs, and the cathode is where reduction occurs. Assuming the cell is represented as: \[ \text{M}^{+} (0.05 \, \text{M}) | \text{M}^{+} (1 \, \text{M}) \] The half-reactions can be represented as: - Anode (oxidation): \( \text{M} \rightarrow \text{M}^{+} + e^{-} \) - Cathode (reduction): \( \text{M}^{+} + e^{-} \rightarrow \text{M} \) ### Step 2: Calculate the Standard Cell Potential (E°) Given that the standard reduction potential (E°) for the half-reaction is 0 V (as stated in the video), we can use the Nernst equation to find the cell potential (E_cell). ### Step 3: Apply the Nernst Equation The Nernst equation is given by: \[ E = E^{\circ} - \frac{RT}{nF} \ln Q \] Where: - \( E \) = cell potential - \( E^{\circ} \) = standard cell potential (0 V in this case) - \( R \) = universal gas constant (8.314 J/(mol·K)) - \( T \) = temperature in Kelvin (assume 298 K if not provided) - \( n \) = number of moles of electrons transferred (1 for this reaction) - \( F \) = Faraday's constant (96485 C/mol) - \( Q \) = reaction quotient ### Step 4: Calculate the Reaction Quotient (Q) The reaction quotient \( Q \) is given by: \[ Q = \frac{[\text{M}^{+}]_{\text{anode}}}{[\text{M}^{+}]_{\text{cathode}}} = \frac{0.05}{1} = 0.05 \] ### Step 5: Substitute Values into the Nernst Equation Now substituting the values into the Nernst equation: \[ E = 0 - \frac{(8.314)(298)}{(1)(96485)} \ln(0.05) \] Calculating the logarithm: \[ \ln(0.05) \approx -2.9957 \] Now substituting this back into the equation: \[ E = - \frac{(8.314)(298)}{96485} \times (-2.9957) \] Calculating the value: \[ E \approx \frac{(8.314)(298)(2.9957)}{96485} \] ### Step 6: Calculate ΔG The relationship between ΔG and E_cell is given by: \[ \Delta G = -nFE \] Substituting the values: \[ \Delta G = -1 \times 96485 \times E \] ### Step 7: Determine the Signs of E_cell and ΔG From the calculations: - If \( E \) is positive, then \( E_{cell} > 0 \) - If \( \Delta G \) is negative, then \( \Delta G < 0 \) ### Conclusion Based on the calculations and the signs: - \( E_{cell} > 0 \) - \( \Delta G < 0 \) Thus, the correct option is D.
