Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 601

Question: What is the e.m.f for the given cell-

Cr|Cr3+(1.0M)||Co2+(1.0M)|Co (EforCr3+/Cr=0.74 volt and E for Co2+/Co=0.28 volt)

Options:

A) 0.46 volt

B) 1.02, volt

C) +0.46 volt

D) 1.66 volt

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] ECr3+/Cr=0.74V,,ECo2+/Co=0.28V The given cell reaction is Cr|Cr3+(1.0M)||Co2+(1.0M)|Co
Cr is anode and Co is cathode Ecell=ECEA=0.28(0.74) =0.28+0.74=+0.46V
