A button cell used in watched funcations as follwing
`Zn(s)+Ag_(2)O(s)+H_(2)O(l)hArr2Ag(s)+Zn^(2+)(aq.)+2OH^(-)(aq)`
If half cell potentials are
`Zn^(2+)(aq.)+2e^(-) rarr Zn(s), E^(@) = -0.76 V`
`Ag_(2)O(s)+H_(2)O(l)+2e^(-) rarr 2Ag(s)+2OH^(-)(aq.),, E^(@) = 0.34V`
The cell potential will be

A

1.10 V

B

0.42 V

C

0.84 V

D

1.34V

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`E_(cell)^(@)=E_("cathode")^(@)-E_("anode")^(@)=0.34-(-0.76)V=1.10V`
