The following galvanic cell was underset(100mL) (Zn|Zn^(2+) (1M) )|| underset("100mL")(Cu^(2+) (1M) |Cu) operated as an electrolytic cell using Cu as anode and Zn cathode. A current of 0.48A was passed for 10 hrs then cell was allowed to function as galvanic cell. What would be the emf the cell at 25^(@)C? Assume that the only electrode reactions occuring were those involving.

Calculate the pressure of H, gas taken in the form of gas electrode in a galvanic cell having 1.0 M HCl at 25^(@)C . Other electrode is that of Ni dipped in 1.0 M Ni^(2+) solution. The observed e.m.f. of the cell is 0.245 V. E_(Ni^(2+) //Ni) ^(Theta) = -0.25V, E_(2H^(+)//H_(2))^(Theta)= 0.0V

Write the IUPAC notations of representing cathode , anode and galvanic cell.

If the e.m.f of a galvanic cell is negative, it implies that:

The emf of a galvanic cell is positive when free energy change of reaction is

Under what conditions will a galvanic cell send no current into outer circuit ?

Assertion : To obtain maximum work from a galvanic cell charge has to be passed reversibly. Reason: The reversible work done by a galvanic cell is equal to decrease in its Gibbs energy.
