What would be the electrode potential of a silver electrode dipped in a saturated solution of `AgCl` in contact with `0.1 M KCl` solution at `25^(@)C` ?
`E^(c-)._(Ag^(o+)|Ag)=0.799 V `
`K_(sp)` of `AgCl=1xx10^(-10)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Ag|AgCl,0.1 M KCl`
`E=E^(c-)-(0.059)/(1) log .(1)/([Ag^(o+)])`
`[Cl^(c-)]=0.1`
`[Ag^(o+)]=(K_(sp))/([Cl^(c-)])=(10^(-10))/(0.1)=10^(-9)`
`E=0.799-(0.059)/(1) log .(1)/([10^(-9)])`
`=0.799-0.059xx9=0.799-0.531=0.268V`
