ΔGo is positive
A hypothetical electrochemical cell is shown below
A | A+ (xM) || B+ (yM) | B
The emf measured is + 0.20 V. The cell reaction is
A + B+ → A+ + B
A+ + B → A + B+
A+ + e- → A; B+ + e- → B
The cell reaction cannot be predicted
For the cell reaction,
Cu2+ (C1, aq) + Zn (s) Zn2+ (C2, aq) + Cu (s) of an electrochemical cell, the change in free energy (ΔG) at a given temperature is a function of
In (C1)
In (C2/ C1)
In (C2)
In (C1 + C2)
An electrochemical cell is shown below
Pt, H2 (1 atm) |HCl (0.1 M)| CH3COOH(0.1 M)| H2 (1 atm), Pt. the emf of the cell will not be zero, because
emf depends on molarities of acids used
pH of 0.1 M HCl and 0.1 M CH3CHOOH is not same
The temperature is constant
Acids used in two compartments are different
Kohlrausch's law states that at
Finite dilution, each ion makes definite contribution to equivalent conductance of an electrolyte, whatever be the nature of the other ion of the electrolyte.
Infinite dilution, each ion makes definite contribution to equivalent conductance of an electrolyte depending on the nature of the other ion of the electrolyte.
