The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which of the following is not correct?", we will analyze each statement provided in the options. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement 1: Aqueous solution of NaCl is an electrolyte.** - Sodium chloride (NaCl) dissociates in water to form sodium ions (Na⁺) and chloride ions (Cl⁻). - Since it produces ions in solution, it can conduct electricity, making it an electrolyte. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 2. **Statement 2: Units of electrochemical equivalent are gram per coulomb.** - The electrochemical equivalent (Z) is defined as the mass (M) of a substance liberated by the passage of one coulomb of electricity (Q). - The formula is given by Z = M/Q, where M is in grams and Q is in coulombs. - Therefore, the units of electrochemical equivalent are indeed grams per coulomb. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 3. **Statement 3: In the Nernst equation, n represents the number of electrons transferred in the reaction.** - The Nernst equation is given as E = E⁰ - (RT/nF) ln(Q), where n is the number of moles of electrons transferred in the balanced chemical equation. - This statement correctly describes the role of n in the Nernst equation. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 4. **Statement 4: Standard reduction potential of hydrogen electrode is zero volt.** - The standard reduction potential of the hydrogen electrode is indeed defined as zero volts at all temperatures. - This is a reference point for measuring the potentials of other electrodes. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. ### Final Conclusion: Since all statements analyzed are correct, we need to identify which one is not correct. However, based on the analysis, it appears that **Statement 3** is the one that has been misinterpreted in the video transcript, as it states that this statement is not correct, while it actually is correct. Thus, the answer to the question "Which of the following is not correct?" is **Statement 3**.

To solve the question "Which of the following is not correct?", we will analyze each statement provided in the options. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement 1: Aqueous solution of NaCl is an electrolyte.** - Sodium chloride (NaCl) dissociates in water to form sodium ions (Na⁺) and chloride ions (Cl⁻). - Since it produces ions in solution, it can conduct electricity, making it an electrolyte. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. ...
