Zn | Zn^(2+)(C(1) || Zn^(2+)(C(2)| Zn. F...

`Zn | Zn^(2+)(C_(1) || Zn^(2+)(C_(2)| Zn`. For this cell `DeltaG` is negative if:

A

`c_(1)=c_(2`

B

`c_(1)gtc_(2)`

C

`c_(2)gtc_(1)`

D

None

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
`E=E^(c-)-(0.0591)/(2)log((c_(1))/(c_(2)))=(0.0591)/(2)log.(c_(2))/(c_(1))`
To make `DeltaG=-ve,E=+ve`
Hence, `c_(2)gtc_(1)`
