    $P_1 = P_2$ and $X_1 > X_2$
  • B
    $P_1 = P_2$ and $X_1 = X_2$
  • C
    $X_1 = X_2$ and $P_1 > P_2$
  • D
    $X_1 = X_2$ and $P_1 < P_2$

The standard cell potential $E^o$ for the reaction $aA + bB \to cC + dD$ is related to the equilibrium constant $K_c$ by the expression:

One half cell in a voltaic cell is constructed by dipping a silver rod in an $AgNO_3$ solution of unknown concentration, and the other half cell is a $Zn$ rod dipped in a $1 \text{ M}$ solution of $ZnSO_4$. $A$ voltage of $1.60 \text{ V}$ is measured at $298 \text{ K}$ for this cell. What is the concentration of $Ag^+$ ions in terms of $\log x$ (where $x = [Ag^+]$)? Given: $E^\ominus_{Zn^{2+}/Zn} = -0.76 \text{ V}$, $E^\ominus_{Ag^+/Ag} = +0.80 \text{ V}$, and $\frac{2.303RT}{F} = 0.059 \text{ V}$.

The $emf$ of the following three galvanic cells:
$1. Zn|Zn^{2+} (1 \ M)||Cu^{2+} (1 \ M)|Cu$
$2. Zn|Zn^{2+} (0.1 \ M)||Cu^{2+} (1 \ M)|Cu$
$3. Zn|Zn^{2+} (1 \ M)||Cu^{2+} (0.1 \ M)|Cu$
are represented by $E_1, E_2, E_3$. Which of the following statements is true?

Calculate the cell potential at $298 \ K$ for the following cell:
$Zn_{(s)} | Zn^{2+} (0.6 \ M) || Cu^{2+} (0.3 \ M) | Cu_{(s)} \quad [E_{cell}^{o} = 1.1 \ V]$

For a $Daniel$ cell $Zn | ZnSO_{4(0.01 \ M)} || CuSO_{4(1 \ M)} | Cu$ at $298 \ K$,the cell potential is $E_1$. When the concentrations of $ZnSO_4$ and $CuSO_4$ are changed to $1 \ M$ and $0.01 \ M$ respectively,the cell potential becomes $E_2$. Determine the relationship between $E_1$ and $E_2$.
