Electrochemistry - Result Question 60

####9. For the following electrochemical cell at $298 K$,

$\operatorname{Pt}(s) \mid H _2(g, 1$ bar $) \mid H^{+}(a q, 1 M)$

$$ | M^{4+}(a q), M^{2+}(a q) \mid \operatorname{Pt}(s) $$

$E _{\text {cell }}=0.092 V$ when $\frac{\left[M^{2+}(a q)\right]}{\left[M^{4+}(a q)\right]}=10^{x}$ Given : $E _{M^{4+} / M^{2+}}^{\circ}=0.151 V ; 2.303 \frac{R T}{F}=0.059 V$

The value of $x$ is

Answer:

Correct Answer: 9. (a)

Solution:

  1. Oxidation at anode

$H _2(g) \longrightarrow 2 H^{+}(a q)+2 e^{-} ; \quad E _{SHE}^{\circ}=0.00 V$

Reduction at cathode

$$ \begin{aligned} & M^{4+}(a q)+2 e^{-} \longrightarrow M^{2+}(a q) ; E _{M^{4+} / M^{2+}}^{\circ}=0.151 V \ & \text { Net: } M^{4+}(a q)+H _2(g) \longrightarrow M^{2+}(a q)+2 H^{+}(a q) ; \end{aligned} $$

$$ \begin{aligned} K & =\frac{\left[M^{2+}\right]\left[H^{+}\right]^{2}}{\left[M^{4+}\right] p _{H _2}}\left(E _{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=0.151 V\right)=\frac{\left[M^{2+}\right]}{\left[M^{4+}\right]} \ E _{\text {cell }} & =E _{\text {cell }}^{\circ}-\frac{0.059}{2} \log K \
