Write the Nernst equation and Cell reaction of the following cell `Zn|Zn^(2+)(0.01)M)||Cu^(2+)(0.01)M)|Cu`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`ZntoZn^(2+)+2e`
`Cu^(2+)+2etoCu`
`Zn+Cu^(2+)toZn^(2+)+Cu` ( Cell reaction )
Nernst equation for the above cell reaction is
`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)+(0.0591)/(2)log""([Cu^(2+)])/([Zn^(2+)])`
`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)+(0.591)/(2)log""(0.01)/(0.01)`
`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)+zero`
`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)`
