The correct Answer is:
To find the temperature coefficient of the e.m.f. of the cell, we start with the relationship between the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) and the cell potential (E_cell). The equation is given by: \[ \Delta G = -nFE_{cell} \] where: - ΔG is the Gibbs free energy change, - n is the number of moles of electrons exchanged, - F is Faraday's constant, - E_cell is the cell potential. ### Step 1: Differentiate ΔG with respect to temperature At constant pressure, we know that: \[ d\Delta G = -\Delta S dT \] where ΔS is the entropy change. This means that: \[ \frac{d\Delta G}{dT} = -\Delta S \] ### Step 2: Differentiate E_cell with respect to temperature From the relationship between ΔG and E_cell, we can differentiate E_cell: \[ dE_{cell} = -\frac{d\Delta G}{nF} \] Substituting the expression for dΔG from Step 1 into this equation gives: \[ dE_{cell} = -\left(-\Delta S dT\right) \frac{1}{nF} = \frac{\Delta S}{nF} dT \] ### Step 3: Find the temperature coefficient Now, we can find the temperature coefficient of the e.m.f. of the cell, which is defined as: \[ \left(\frac{dE_{cell}}{dT}\right)_{P} = \frac{\Delta S}{nF} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the temperature coefficient of the e.m.f. of the cell is given by: \[ \left(\frac{dE_{cell}}{dT}\right)_{P} = \frac{\Delta S}{nF} \] ### Final Answer The temperature coefficient of the e.m.f. of the cell is \( \frac{\Delta S}{nF} \). ---
