Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 619

Question: The emf of a particular voltaic cell with the cell reaction Hg22++H22Hg+2H+ is 0.65 V. The maximum electrical work of this cell when 0.5 g of H2 is consumed.

Options:

A) 3.12×104J

B) 1.25×105J

C) 25.0×106J

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

[a] Wmax=n.FE; Wmax=2×96500×0.65=1.25×105J 0.5g,H2=0.25mole Hence Wmax =1.25×105×0.25=3.12×104J
