Fe is reacted with 1.0M HCI.E^(@) for Fe...

Fe is reacted with `1.0M HCI.E^(@)` for `Fe//Fe^(2+) = +0.34` volt. The correct observation (s) regarding this reaction is/are:

A

`Fe` will be oxidised to `Fe^(2+)`

B

`Fe^(2+)` will be reduced to `Fe`

C

since e.m.f is positive, the reaction shall occur

D

since e.m.f. is positive the reaction shall not occur

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C

`2H^(+) +Fe rarr Fe^(2+) +H_(2)`
`E_(cell)^(@) = E_("cathod") -E_("anode")^(@) = 0 - (-0.34) = 0.34V`
Fe will oxidise, emf is +ve, the reaction shall occur.
