Find the relationship between E₁ and E₂ for the following Daniell cell:
Zn | ZnSO₄ (0.01 M) || CuSO₄ (1.0 M) | Cu
The emf of this cell is E₁.
If the concentration of ZnSO₄ is changed to 1.0 M and that of CuSO₄ is changed to 0.01 M, the emf becomes E₂.
Given:
RT/F = 0.059 V
1. E1 = E2
2. E1 > E2
3. E1 < E2
4. E2 = 0 \(\neq\)E1
The pressure of H2 required to make the potential of H2 - electrode zero in pure water at 298 K is:
| 1. | 10–12 atm | 2. | 10–10 atm |
| 3. | 10–4 atm | 4. | 10–14 atm |
Zinc can be coated on iron to produce galvanised iron but the reverse is not possible. It is because
(1) zinc is lighter than iron
(2) zinc has lower melting point than iron
(3) zinc has lower negative electrode potential than iron
(4) zinc has higher negative electrode potential than iron
