(ii) What is the cell emf ? How does it depend on the concentration of
(iii) What is the maximum amount of electrical energy that can be obtained from one mole of
Show Answer
Solution:
- Given,
Electrode at lower reduction potential act as anode and that at higher reduction potential act as cathode.
(i) Electrodes reaction :
(ii) Emf is independent of concentration of
(iii) Maximum amount of energy that can be obtained
i.e.
