Electrochemistry - Result Question 58

####60. A button cell used in watches functions as following

Zn(s)+Ag2O(s)+H2O(l)2Ag(s)+Zn2+(aq)+2OH(aq)

If half cell potentials are :

Zn2+(aq)+2eZn(s);E0=0.76V

Ag2O(s)+H2O(l)+2e2Ag(s)+

2OH(aq);Eo=0.34V The cell potential will be :

(a) 0.42V

(b) 0.84V

(c) 1.34V

(d) 1.10V
