The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the relationship between the temperature coefficient of the cell reaction and the thermodynamic quantities: ΔS (change in entropy), ΔH (change in enthalpy), and ΔG (change in Gibbs free energy). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Temperature Coefficient**: - The temperature coefficient \(\left(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T}\right)\) being zero implies that the cell potential (E) does not change with temperature. 2. **Relating ΔS to the Temperature Coefficient**: - The change in entropy (ΔS) can be expressed in terms of the temperature coefficient: \[ \Delta S = nF \left(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T}\right) \] - Here, \(n\) is the number of moles of electrons transferred, and \(F\) is Faraday's constant. 3. **Substituting the Given Condition**: - Since \(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T} = 0\), we substitute this into the equation for ΔS: \[ \Delta S = nF \cdot 0 = 0 \] - Therefore, we conclude that ΔS is zero. 4. **Analyzing ΔH**: - The change in enthalpy (ΔH) is given by the equation: \[ \Delta H = -nF E_{\text{cell}} - T\left(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T}\right) \] - Since \(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T} = 0\), this simplifies to: \[ \Delta H = -nF E_{\text{cell}} \] - This means ΔH is not necessarily zero, as \(E_{\text{cell}}\) is generally not zero. 5. **Analyzing ΔG**: - The change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG) is related to ΔH and ΔS by the equation: \[ \Delta G = \Delta H - T\Delta S \] - Substituting ΔS = 0 into this equation gives: \[ \Delta G = \Delta H - T \cdot 0 = \Delta H \] - Since ΔH is not zero, ΔG is also not zero. 6. **Final Conclusion**: - Out of ΔS, ΔH, and ΔG, the only quantity that is zero when \(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T} = 0\) is ΔS. ### Answer: The correct answer is that **ΔS is zero**. ---
