Calculate the potential of hydrogen elec...

Calculate the potential of hydrogen electrode in contact with a solution whose pH is 10.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

pH = 10
`[H^(+)] = 10^(-10)`
`E = E^(Theta) - (0.059)/(1) "log" (1)/([H^(+)])`
`E = 0 - (0.059)/(1) "log" (1)/(10^(-10))`
` E = 0 - 0.059 xx 10`
`= -0.59 V `
