The correct Answer is:
To calculate the cell entropy change (\( \Delta S \)) for the given electrochemical cell, we can use the relationship between the entropy change, the cell potential (EMF), and the temperature coefficient. The steps are as follows: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - EMF of the cell (\( E \)) = 0.045 V - Temperature coefficient (\( \frac{dE}{dT} \)) = \( 3.4 \times 10^{-4} \, V/K \) - Faraday's constant (\( F \)) = 96500 C/mol - Number of electrons transferred (\( n \)) = 2 (since \( Hg_2Cl_2 \) accepts 2 electrons) ### Step 2: Use the formula for entropy change The formula relating entropy change to EMF and temperature is given by: \[ \Delta S = -nF \frac{dE}{dT} \] ### Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula Substituting the known values into the formula: \[ \Delta S = -2 \times 96500 \, C/mol \times (3.4 \times 10^{-4} \, V/K) \] ### Step 4: Calculate the entropy change Calculating the above expression: \[ \Delta S = -2 \times 96500 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-4} \] \[ \Delta S = -2 \times 96500 \times 0.00034 \] \[ \Delta S = -65.62 \, J/K \] ### Step 5: Interpret the result Since entropy change is typically expressed as a positive value in thermodynamics, we take the absolute value: \[ \Delta S \approx 65.62 \, J/K \] ### Final Answer Thus, the cell entropy change is approximately \( 65.62 \, J/K \). ---
