The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the incorrect matching of expressions with the given reactions, we will analyze each reaction and its corresponding expression step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Nernst Equation The Nernst equation is given by: \[ E_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{cell}} - \frac{0.0591}{n} \log \left( \frac{[\text{Products}]}{[\text{Reactants}]} \right) \] where: - \( E_{\text{cell}} \) = EMF of the cell - \( E^\circ_{\text{cell}} \) = Standard EMF of the cell - \( n \) = Number of electrons exchanged - Concentrations of products and reactants are used in the logarithmic term. ### Step 2: Analyzing Each Reaction **Reaction 1:** - Given: \( \text{Ag} + \text{Ag}^+_{C1} \rightleftharpoons \text{Ag} + \text{Ag}^+_{C2} \) - Anodic Reaction: \( \text{Ag} \rightarrow \text{Ag}^+ + e^- \) - Cathodic Reaction: \( \text{Ag}^+ + e^- \rightarrow \text{Ag} \) - Expression: \( E_{\text{cell}} = -\frac{0.0591}{1} \log \left( \frac{C1}{C2} \right) \) - This expression is correct. **Reaction 2:** - Given: \( 2\text{Ag}^+ + \text{H}_2 \rightleftharpoons 2\text{Ag} + 2\text{H}^+ \) - Anodic Reaction: \( \text{H}_2 \rightarrow 2\text{H}^+ + 2e^- \) - Cathodic Reaction: \( 2\text{Ag}^+ + 2e^- \rightarrow 2\text{Ag} \) - Expression: \( E_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{cell}} - \frac{0.0591}{2} \log \left( \frac{[\text{H}^+]^2}{[\text{Ag}^+]^2} \right) \) - This expression is correct. **Reaction 3:** - Given: \( A + B \rightleftharpoons C + D \) - At equilibrium, \( E_{\text{cell}} = 0 \) - Expression: \( E_{\text{cell}} = \frac{0.0591}{n} \log \left( \frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b} \right) \) - This expression is correct. **Reaction 4:** - Given: \( \text{M}^{n+} + n e^- \rightarrow \text{M (solid)} \) - Expression: \( E_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{cell}} - \frac{0.0591}{n} \log \left( \frac{1}{[\text{M}^{n+}]} \right) \) - This expression is correct. ### Step 3: Identifying the Incorrect Expression After analyzing all the reactions and their corresponding expressions: - The expression for **Reaction 2** is incorrectly matched because it states that \( \text{Ag}^+ \) is on the product side, while it is actually on the reactant side. ### Conclusion The expression that is not correctly matched is for **Reaction 2**.

To solve the question regarding the incorrect matching of expressions with the given reactions, we will analyze each reaction and its corresponding expression step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Nernst Equation The Nernst equation is given by: \[ E_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{cell}} - \frac{0.0591}{n} \log \left( \frac{[\text{Products}]}{[\text{Reactants}]} \right) \] where: - \( E_{\text{cell}} \) = EMF of the cell - \( E^\circ_{\text{cell}} \) = Standard EMF of the cell ...
