(A) An electrochemical cell can be set-up only if the redox reaction is spontaneous. (R) A reaction is spontaneous if free energy change is negative.

An electrochemical cell is a device in which the oxidation and reduction half rections are taking place separtely and the electrical energy is evloved as a result of the rection.In fact all redox reactions are of spontaneous nature and the free energy change (triangleG) is negative. This is vonverted in to the electrical energy. (i)Which electrode acts as negative pole? (ii) which electrode acts as positive pole? (iii) ho does curent flow in the elctrochemical cell? (iv) what is the value associated with the working of electrochemicals cells?

For a chemical reaction, the free energy change (DeltaG) is negative. The reaction is

A reaction attains equilibrium, when the free energy change is

If equilibrium constant for a reaction is K, then standard free energy change is :

The free energy change due to a reaction is zero when

The equilibrium constant of a reaction is 73. Calculate standard free energy change.
