Consider the single electrode process 4H^ + 4e^- = 2H_2 catalyzed by platinum black electrode in HCl electrolyte. The potential of the electrode is -0.059V Vs. SHE. What is the concenteration of the acid in the hydrogen half cell if the H_2 pressure is 1 bar?
Standard electrode potentials of Fe^(2+) + 2e to Fe and Fe^(3+) + 3e to Fe are -0.440V and -0.036V respectively. The standard electrode potential (E^@) for Fe^(3+) +e to Fe^(2+) is
The cell potential (E_("cell")) of a reaction is related as DeltaG = -nFE_("cell") , where DeltaG represents max. useful electrical work . n=no. of moles of electrons exchanged during the reactino of reversible cell reaction d(DeltaG) = (DeltaV)dP-(DeltaS).dT at constant pressure d(DeltaG) = - (DeltaS).dT :' At constant pressure DeltaG = DeltaG = DeltaH-TDeltaS .......(1) :. DeltaG = DeltaH + T((d(DeltaG))/(dT))_P ......... (B) ((dE_("cell"))/(dT))_(P) is known as temperature coefficient of the e.m.f of the cell When DeltaS increases, temperature coefficient of the emf of cell
