In which direction the cell reaction would proceed if the E.M.F. of a galvanic cell is zero?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the direction of the cell reaction when the E.M.F. (Electromotive Force) of a galvanic cell is zero, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Relationship Between E.M.F. and Free Energy**: The relationship between the change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG) and the E.M.F. (E) of a galvanic cell is given by the equation: \[ \Delta G = -nFE ...
