What is the representation of a Daniell cell ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To represent a Daniell cell, we need to understand the processes of oxidation and reduction that occur within it. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the Components of the Daniell Cell A Daniell cell consists of two half-cells: 1. Anode (where oxidation occurs): Zinc electrode in a zinc sulfate solution (Zn/ZnSO4). 2. Cathode (where reduction occurs): Copper electrode in a copper sulfate solution (Cu/CuSO4). ### Step 2: Write the Half-Reactions ...

In a Daniel cell,

the chemical energy liberted during the redox reaction is converted to electrical energy

the electrical energy of the cell is converted to chemical energy

the energy of the cell is utilised in conduction of the redox reaction

the potential energy of the cell is converted into electrical energy.

What is the correct representation of reaction occurring when HCl is heated with MnO_(2) ?

`MnO_(4)^(-)+5Cl^(-)+8H^(+)rarr Mn^(2+)+5Cl^(-)+5H_(2)O`

`MnO_(2)+2Cl^(-)+4H^(+)rarr Mn^(2+)+Cl_(2)+2H_(2)O`

`2MnO_(2)+4Cl^(-)+8H^(+)rarr 2 Mn^(2+)+2Cl_(2)+4H_(2)O`

`MnO_(2)+4HCl rarr MnCl_(4)+Cl_(2)+H_(2)O`
