The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the statement regarding the standard potential of the half-cell `Cl^(-)|AgCl|Ag` in relation to `Ag^(+) | Ag` is true or false, we can analyze the given expression step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Half-Cells**: - The half-cell `Cl^(-)|AgCl|Ag` involves the reduction of chloride ions and the formation of silver chloride (AgCl). - The half-cell `Ag^(+) | Ag` involves the reduction of silver ions to silver metal. 2. **Standard Potentials**: - The standard potential for the half-cell `Ag^(+) | Ag` is denoted as `E°(Ag)`. - The standard potential for the half-cell `Cl^(-)|AgCl|Ag` is denoted as `E°(Cl)`. 3. **Nernst Equation**: - The Nernst equation relates the cell potential to the standard potential and the concentration of the reactants/products. - For a general cell reaction, the Nernst equation is given by: \[ E = E° - \frac{RT}{nF} \ln Q \] - Here, \( Q \) is the reaction quotient, \( n \) is the number of electrons transferred, \( R \) is the universal gas constant, and \( F \) is Faraday's constant. 4. **Equilibrium Condition**: - At equilibrium, the cell potential \( E \) becomes zero. Thus, we can set up the equation: \[ 0 = E°(Cl) - E°(Ag) - \frac{RT}{nF} \ln K_{sp}(AgCl) \] - Rearranging gives: \[ E°(Cl) = E°(Ag) + \frac{RT}{nF} \ln K_{sp}(AgCl) \] 5. **Identifying the Expression**: - The expression provided in the question is: \[ E°(Ag) = E°(Cl) + \frac{RT}{F} \ln K_{sp}(AgCl) \] - This expression is not correctly rearranged as per the equilibrium condition derived above. 6. **Conclusion**: - The statement in the question is **False** because the correct relationship should have \( E°(Cl) \) on the left side, not \( E°(Ag) \). ### Final Answer: The statement is **False**.

To determine whether the statement regarding the standard potential of the half-cell `Cl^(-)|AgCl|Ag` in relation to `Ag^(+) | Ag` is true or false, we can analyze the given expression step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Half-Cells**: - The half-cell `Cl^(-)|AgCl|Ag` involves the reduction of chloride ions and the formation of silver chloride (AgCl). - The half-cell `Ag^(+) | Ag` involves the reduction of silver ions to silver metal. ...
