To solve the problem of calculating the maximum electrical work of the voltaic cell when 0.5 g of H₂ is consumed, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the number of moles of H₂ consumed To find the number of moles of hydrogen gas (H₂), we use the formula: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{\text{mass (g)}}{\text{molar mass (g/mol)}} \] ...
