Derive expression to calculate emf (reduction) of the following half cells at `25^@C`
`Cl_2 (g)|2Cl^(-) (Pt) (1 atm)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`1/2Cl_2(g)+e leftrightarrow Cl^-` (reduction)
(1 atm)
`E_(Cl_2,Cl^-)=E_(cl_2,Cl^-)^@ -0.0591/1 log""([Cl^-])/([Cl]^(1/2))`
`=E_(Cl_2,Cl^-)^@-0.0591 log [Cl^-]`
