The negative Zn pole of a Daniell cell, sending a contant current through a circuit, decreases in mass by 0.13 g in 30 minutes. If the electrochemical equivalent of Zn and Cu are 32.5 and 31.5 respectively, the increase in the mass of the positive Cu pole in this time is
0.180 g
0.141 g
0.126 g
0.242 g
Fuse wire is a wire of
low resistance and low melting point
low resistance and high melting point
high resistance and high melting point
high resistance and low melting point
In a potentiometer of 10 wires,the balance point is obtained on the 7th wire.To shift the balance point to 9th wire,we should
decrease resistance in the main circuit
increase resistance in the main circuit
decrease resistance in series with the cell whose emf is to be measured
increase resistance in series with the cell whose emf is to be determined
A piece of copper and another of germanium are cooled from room temperature to 80K.The resistance of
each of them increases
each of them decreases
copper increases and germanium decreases
copper decreases and germanium increases
Kirchhoff's current law at a junction deals with conservation of

Potentiometer measures the potential difference more accurately than a voltmeter because
it has a wire of high resistance
it has a wire of low resistance
it does not draw current from external circuit
it draws a heavy current from external circuit
