Can E("cell")^(@) or Delta(r)G^(@) for c...

Can `E_("cell")^(@)` or `Delta_(r)G^(@)` for cell reaction ever be equal to zero?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No, otheriwse the reaction become non-feasible
The reaction is feasible only at `E_("cell")^(@)=` positive or `Delta_(r)G^(@)`=negative.
when `E^(@)=Delta_(r)G^(@)`=0 the reaction reaches at equilibrium.
