For the redox reaction: Zn(s) +Cu^(2+)...

For the redox reaction:
`Zn(s) +Cu^(2+) (0.1M) rarr Zn^(2+) (1M)+Cu(s)` taking place in a cell,
`E_(cell)^(@) is 1.10` volt. `E_(cell)` for the cell will be `(2.303 (RT)/(F) = 0l.0591)`

A

`1.07` volt

B

`0.82` volt

C

`2.14` volt

D

`1.80` volt

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Applying Nernst equation
`E_(cell) = E_(cell)^(@) =- (0.0591)/(2)log. |(Sn^(2+))/(Cu^(2+))|`
`=1.1 -(0.0591)/(2)log.(1)/(0.1)`
`1.1 - 0.02955`
`=1.07`
