For the hypothetical electrochemical cell given below:
A | A⁺(x M) || B⁺(y M) | B .
The measured cell emf is +0.20 V. Find the overall cell reaction.
1. A+ + B → A + B+
2. A+ + e- → A ; B+ + e- → B
3. The cell reaction cannot be predicted.
4. A + B+ → A+ + B
In the silver plating of copper, K[Ag(CN)2] is used instead of AgNO3. The reason is:
| 1. | A thin layer of Ag is formed on Cu |
| 2. | More voltage is required |
| 3. | Ag+ ions are completely removed from the solution |
| 4. | Less availability of Ag+ ions, as Cu can not displace Ag from [Ag(CN)2]– ion |
Which of the following materials will cause a change in the concentration of ZnCl₂ solution
when it is kept in a container made of them?
| 1. | Al | 2. | Cu |
| 3. | Ag | 4. | None of the above |
