Explanation:

# At anode, oxidation occur
H2 $\to$ 2H+ + 2e$-$ ....... (1)
# At cathode, reduction occur

Adding equation (1) and (2), we get n = 2, where n = cancelled out electron
Now,
$\Delta G^\circ = - nF\,E_{cell}^o$
$ = - 2 \times 96500 \times 0.5332$
$ = - 102907.6$
$ = - 102.9$ kJ/mol
$ = - 103$ kJ/mol

(2) $\lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\infty}\left(\mathrm{NaNO}_3\right)=12.0 \,\mathrm{mS} \mathrm{m}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$
(3) $\lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\infty}\left(\mathrm{AgNO}_3\right)=13.3 \,\mathrm{mS} \mathrm{m}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$
$\lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\infty}(\mathrm{Ag} \mathrm{I})=(1)+(3)-(2)$
$ =12.7+13.3-12.0 $
$ =26.0-12.0 $
$\lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\infty}(\mathrm{Ag} \mathrm{I})=14.0$

Given : 1 F = 96500 C mol$-$1
Atomic mass of Fe = 56 g mol$-$1
Explanation:
$ \text {Moles of Fe deposited }=\frac{0.3482}{56}=6.2 \times 10^{-3} $
For 1 mole $\mathrm{Fe}$, charge required is $3 \mathrm{~F}$
For $6.2 \times 10^{-3}$ mole $\mathrm{Fe}$, charge required is $3 \times 6.2 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~F}$
Since, charge required $=18.6 \times 10^{-3} \times 96500 \mathrm{C}$
$ =1794.9 \mathrm{C} $
And,
$ 1.5 \times \mathrm{t}=1794.9 $
$t=\frac{1794.9}{1.5 \times 60} \min$

Explanation:
$R = {1 \over G}$ or $G = {1 \over R} = {1 \over {0.243\Omega }} = 4.115{\Omega ^{ - 1}}$
Relation between conductance (G),
conductivity ($\kappa $) and cell constant $\left( {{l \over A}} \right)$ is given as
$\kappa = {{Gl} \over A}$
$ \Rightarrow {l \over A} = {\kappa \over G} = {{1.07 \times {{10}^6}S{m^{ - 1}}} \over {4.115{\Omega ^{ - 1}}}} = 26 \times {10^4}{m^{ - 1}} \Rightarrow x = 26$
$C{d_{(s)}} + H{g_2}S{O_{4(s)}} + {9 \over 5}{H_2}{O_{(l)}}$ $\rightleftharpoons$ $CdS{O_4}.{9 \over 5}{H_2}{O_{(s)}} + 2H{g_{(l)}}$

Explanation:
$ \therefore $ $\Delta$S$^\circ$ $ = {{\Delta H^\circ + nFE^\circ } \over T}$
$ = {{( - 825.2 \times {{10}^3}) + (2 \times 96487 \times 4.315)} \over {298}}$
$ = {{ - 825.2 \times {{10}^3} + 832.682 \times {{10}^3}} \over {298}}$
$ = {{7.483 \times {{10}^3}} \over {298}} = 25.11$ JK$-$1 mol$-$1
$\therefore$ Nearest integer answer is 25.

Explanation:
$Z{n_{(s)}} + \mathop {Cu_{(aq.)}^{ + 2}}\limits_{0.02\,M} \to \mathop {Zn_{}^{ + 2}}\limits_{0.04\,M} + Cu(s)$
Nernst equation = ${F_{cell}} = E_{cell}^o - {{0.059} \over 2}\log {{[2{n^{ + 2}}]} \over {[C{u^{ + 2}}]}}$
$ \Rightarrow {E_{cell}}\left[ {E_{cell}^o - E_{Z{n^{ + 2}}/Zn}^o} \right] - {{0.059} \over 2}\log {{0.04} \over {0.02}}$
$ \Rightarrow {E_{cell}}[0.34 - ( - 0.76)] - {{0.059} \over 2}{\log ^2}$
$ \Rightarrow {E_{cell}}1 - 1 - {{0.059} \over 2} \times 0.3010$

[Use : ${{2.303RT} \over F}$ = 0.059]
Explanation:
$Cu(s) + 2A{g^ + }(aq) \to C{u^{2 + }}(aq) + 2Ag(s)$
Now, ${E_{cell}} = E_{cell}^o - {{0.059} \over 2}\log {{[C{u^{2 + }}]} \over {{{[A{g^ + }]}^2}}}$ .... (1)
$\therefore$ ${E_1} = 0.3095 = E_{cell}^o - {{0.059} \over 2}.\log {{0.01} \over {{{(0.001)}^2}}}$ ....(2)
From (1) and (2), E2 = 0.28 V = 28 $\times$ 10$-$2 V
Explanation:
$ = 1000 \times {{2 \times {{10}^{ - 5}}} \over {0.001}} = 20$ S cm2 mol$-$1
$ \Rightarrow \alpha = {{\Lambda _m^{}} \over {\Lambda _m^\infty }} = {{20} \over {190}} = \left( {{2 \over {19}}} \right)$
HA $\rightleftharpoons$ H+ + A$-$
$0.001(1 - \alpha )0.001\alpha 0.001\alpha $

$Zn + 2F{e^{3 + }}\buildrel {} \over \longrightarrow Z{n^{2 + }} + 2F{e^{2 + }}$
$E_{cell}^0 = 0.77 - (0.76)$
$ = 1.53$ V
$1.50 = 1.53 - {{0.06} \over 2}\log {\left( {{{F{e^{2 + }}} \over {F{e^{3 + }}}}} \right)^2}$
$\log \left( {{{F{e^{2 + }}} \over {F{e^{3 + }}}}} \right) = {{0.03} \over {0.06}} = {1 \over 2}$
${{[F{e^{2 + }}]} \over {[F{e^{3 + }}]}} = {10^{1/2}} = \sqrt {10} $
${{[F{e^{3 + }}]} \over {[F{e^{2 + }}]}} = {1 \over {\sqrt {10} }}$
${{[F{e^{3 + }}]} \over {[F{e^{2 + }}] + [F{e^{3 + }}]}} = {1 \over {1 + \sqrt {10} }} = {1 \over {4.16}}$

Ans. (1)
Explanation:
$\Lambda _m^\infty (BaS{O_4}) = \lambda _m^\infty (B{a^{2 + }}) + \lambda _m^\infty (SO_4^{2 - })$
$\Lambda _m^\infty (BaS{O_4}) = \Lambda _m^\infty (BaC{l_2}) + \Lambda _m^\infty ({H_2}S{O_4}) - 2\Lambda _m^\infty (HCl)$

Explanation:
$F{e^{3 + }} + 3{e^ - } \to Fe$
$ \therefore $ $\Delta G_1^o = - nF{E^o}$
$ = - 3F( - 0.036)$
$E_{F{e^{2 + }}/Fe}^o = 0.440V$
$F{e^{2 + }} + 2{e^ - } \to Fe;{E^o} = - 0.440V$
$Fe \to F{e^{2 + }} + 2{e^ - };{E^o} = 0.440V$
$ \therefore $ $\Delta G_2^o = - 2F(0.440)$
$E_{{I_2}/2{I^ - }}^o = 0.539V$
${I_2} + 2{e^ - } \to 2{I^ - };{E^o} = 0.539V$
$2{I^ - } \to {I_2} + 2{e^ - };{E^o} = - 0.539V$
$\Delta G_3^o = - 2F( - 0.539)$
$ \therefore $ $\Delta {G^o} = 2\left[ {\Delta G_1^o + \Delta G_2^o} \right] + \Delta G_3^o$
$ = 2\left[ {3F(0.036) - 2F(0.440)} \right] + 2F(0.539)$
$ = - 45934 = - 45.9KJ \simeq - 46KJ$
Explanation:
$R = \left( {{1 \over K}} \right)\left( {{l \over A}} \right) \Rightarrow {l \over A} = R \times K = 4.19 \times 0.14$
= 0.58
For HCl solution,
$R = \left( {{1 \over K}} \right)\left( {{l \over A}} \right)$
$ \Rightarrow K = {{(l/A)} \over R} = {{0.58} \over {1.03}} = 0.56 = 56 \times {10^{ - 2}}$ Sm$-$1
Explanation:
$ \therefore $ Conductivity = 0.55 $\times$ 10$-$3 $\times$ 1.3 S cm$-$1
Molar conductivity = ${{Conductivity\,(S\,c{m^{ - 1}}) \times 1000} \over {Molarity\,(mol/L)}}$
$ = {{0.55 \times {{10}^{ - 3}} \times 1.3 \times 100} \over {5 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}$

Explanation:
Zn(s) + 2Ag+ $ \rightleftharpoons $ 2Ag(s) + Zn+2
$E_{cell}^0 = E_{A{g^ + }/Ag}^0 - E_{Z{n^{2 + }}/Zn}^0$
$ = 0.80 - ( - 0.76)$
$ = 1.56V$
${E_{cell}} = 1.56 - {{ 0.059} \over 2}\log {{[Z{n^{2 + }}]} \over {{{[A{g^ + }]}^2}}}$
$ = 1.56 - {{0.059} \over 2}\log {{0.1} \over {{{(0.01)}^2}}}$
$ = 1.56 - {{0.059} \over 2} \times 3$

[Given, $E_{C{u^{2 + }}/Cu}^o = 0.34$ V, $E_{NO_3^ - /NO}^o = 0.96$ V, $E_{NO_3^ - /N{O_2}}^o = 0.79$ V and at 298 K, ${{RT} \over F}$(2.303) = 0.059]
Explanation:
Cell-I $(HN{O_3} \to NO)$
$3Cu + 2NO_3^ - + 8{H^ + } \to 3C{u^{2 + }} + 2NO + 4{H_2}O$
${Q_1} = {{{{[C{u^{2 + }}]}^3} \times {{({p_{NO}})}^2}} \over {{{[NO_3^ - ]}^2} \times {{[{H^ + }]}^8}}}$
$\because$ $E_1^o = 0.96 - ( - 0.34) = 1.3\,V$
${E_1} = 1.3 - {{0.059} \over 6}\log {Q_1}$
Cell-II $(HN{O_3} \to N{O_2})$
$Cu + 2NO_3^ - + 4{H^ + } \to C{u^{2 + }} + 2N{O_2} + 2{H_2}O$
${Q_2} = {{[C{u^2}] \times {{({p_{N{O_2}}})}^2}} \over {{{[NO_3^ - ]}^2} \times {{[{H^ + }]}^4}}}$
$\because$ $E_2^o = 0.79 - ( - 0.34)\,V = 1.13\,V$
${E_2} = 1.13 - {{0.059} \over 2}\log {Q_2}$
Now, ${E_1} = {E_2}$
$1.3 - {{0.059} \over 6}\log {Q_1} = 1.13 - {{0.059} \over 2}\log {Q_2}$
$0.17 = {{0.059} \over 6}[\log {Q_1} - 3\log {Q_2} - = {{0.059} \over 6}\log {{{Q_1}} \over {{Q_2}}}$
$ = {{0.059} \over 6}\log {{{{[C{u^{2 + }}]}^3} \times {{({p_{NO}})}^2}} \over {{{[NO_3^ - ]}^2} \times {{[{H^ + }]}^8}}} \times {{{{[NO_3^ - ]}^6} \times {{[{H^ + }]}^{12}}} \over {{{[C{u^{2 + }}]}^3} \times {{({p_{N{O_2}}})}^6}}}$
$ = {{0.059} \over 6}\log {{{{[{H^ + }]}^4} \times {{[NO_3^ - ]}^4}} \over {{{({p_{N{O_2}}})}^4}}}$ [$\because$ ${p_{NO}} = {p_{N{O_2}}}$]
$ = {{0.059} \over 6}\log {{{{[HN{O_3}]}^4}} \over {{{({p_{N{O_2}}})}^4}}}$
Now, ${p_{N{O_2}}} \equiv [HN{O_3}]$
So, $0.17 = {{0.059} \over 6}\log {[HN{O_3}]^8}$
$ = {{0.059} \over 6} \times 8\log [HN{O_3}]$
$\log [HN{O_3}] = 2.16$
$[HN{O_3}] = {10^{2.16}}M = {10^x}M$
$\therefore$ $x = 2.16$
$ \Rightarrow 2x = 2 \times 2.16 = 4.32 \simeq 4$
Explanation:
$MnO_4^ - + {H^ + } + 5{e^ - } \to M{n^{2 + }} + 4{H_2}O$
n = 5
Applying Nernst equation, ${E_{cell}} = E_{cell}^o - {{0.0591} \over n}\log {{[P]} \over {[R]}}$
or ${E_{cell}} = E_{cell}^o - {{0.0591} \over n}\log {{[M{n^{2 + }}]} \over {[MnO_4^ - ]}}{\left[ {{1 \over {{H^ + }}}} \right]^8}$
(I) Given, [H+] = 1 M
${E_1} = E^\circ - {{0.0591} \over 5}\log {{[M{n^{2 + }}]} \over {[MnO_4^ - ]}}$
(II) Now, [H+] = 10$-$4 M
${E_2} = E^\circ - {{0.0591} \over 5}\log {{[M{n^{2 + }}]} \over {[MnO_4^ - ]}} \times {1 \over {{{({{10}^{ - 4}})}^8}}}$
$\therefore$ $\left| {{E_1} - {E_2}} \right|$
$\left| {{E_1} - {E_2}} \right| = {{0.0591} \over 5} \times 32 = 0.3776\,V = 3776 \times {10^{ - 4}}$

6OH- + Cl- $ \to $ ClO3- + 3H2O + 6e-
If only 60% of the current is utilized in the reaction, the time (rounded to the nearest hour) required to produce 10 g of KClO3 using a current of 2 A is_________.
(Given : F = 96,500 C mol–1; molar mass of KCIO3 = 122 g mol–1)
Explanation:
$ \therefore $ To synthesise ${{10} \over {122}}$ moles of KClO3,
Charge required = ${{10} \over {122}} \times 6$ F
${{10} \over {122}} \times 6 = {{2 \times t(hr) \times 3600} \over {96500}} \times {{60} \over {100}}$
$ \Rightarrow $ t(hr) = ${{965 \times 100} \over {122 \times 2 \times 36}}$ = 10.98 hr $ \simeq $ 11 Hr
3 electrons are transferred has a $\Delta $Gº of 17.37 kJ mol–1 at
25 oC. The value of Eo
cell (in V) is ______ × 10–2.
(1 F = 96,500 C mol–1)
Explanation:
$\Delta $Gº = -nF$E_{cell}^o$
$ \Rightarrow $ $E_{cell}^o$ = $ - {{17.37 \times 1000} \over {3 \times 96500}}$
= -0.06 = -6.00 $ \times $ 10-2
Cr2O72- + 14H+ + 6e– $ \to $ 2Cr3+ + 7H2O
The amount of Cr3+ obtained was 0.104 g. The efficiency of the process(in%) is (Take : F = 96000 C, At. mass of chromium = 52) ______.
Explanation:
I = 2 A, t = 8 min
From 1st law of faraday,
wCr+3 = z $ \times $ i $ \times $ t
$ \Rightarrow $ wCr+3 = ${{52} \over {96000 \times 3}} \times 2 \times 8 \times 60$
= ${{52} \over {300}}$
Mass of Cr3+ ions actually obtained = 0.104 gm
% efficiency =
= ${{0.104} \over {{{52} \over {300}}}}$ $ \times $ 100
= 60 %
Pt(s) | H2 (g, 1 Bar) | HCl (aq., pH =1) | AgCl(s) | Ag(s).
The pH of aq. HCl required to stop the photoelectric current form K(w0 = 2.25 eV), all other conditions remaining the same, is _______ $ \times $ 10-2 (to the nearest integer).
Given, 2.303${{RT} \over F}$ = 0.06 V;
$E_{AgCl|Ag|C{l^ - }}^0$ = 0.22 V
Explanation:
From Nernst Equation,
Ecell = $E_{cell}^0$ - ${{0.06} \over 1}\log \left[ {{H^ + }} \right]\left[ {C{l^ - }} \right]$
= 0.22 – 0.06 log 10–2 = 0.34 V
Work function of Na metal = 2.3 eV
KE of photoelectron = 0.34 eV
Energy of incident radiation = 2.3 + 0.34 = 2.64 eV
For K atom,
Energy of incident radiation for K metal = 2.64 eV
Work function of K metal = 2.25 eV
KE of photoelectrons = 2.64 – 2.25 = 0.39 eV
$ \therefore $ Ecell = 0.39 V
Using Nernst Equation,
0.39 = 0.22 - ${{0.06} \over 1}\log \left[ {{H^ + }} \right]\left[ {C{l^ - }} \right]$
As $\left[ {{H^ + }} \right] = \left[ {C{l^ - }} \right]$
0.39 = 0.22 - ${{0.06} \over 1}\log {\left[ {{H^ + }} \right]^2}$
$ \Rightarrow $ 0.39 = 0.22 - $0.12 \times \log \left[ {{H^ + }} \right]$
$ \Rightarrow $ 0.39 = 0.22 + 0.12 $ \times $ pH
$ \Rightarrow $ pH = 1.42 = 142 $ \times $ 10-2
2Cu+(aq) ⇌ Cu(s) + Cu2+(aq) at 298 K. ln K
(where K is the equilibrium constant) is
___________ × 10–1.
Given :
($E_{C{u^{2 + }}/C{u^ + }}^0 = 0.16V$
$E_{C{u^ + }/Cu}^0 = 0.52V$
${{RT} \over F} = 0.025$)
Explanation:
= 0.52 – 0.16
= 0.36 V
At equilibrium, Ecell = 0
$E_{cell}^0$ = ${{RT} \over {nF}}$ln K
$ \Rightarrow $ ln K = ${{E_{cell}^0 \times nF} \over {RT}}$
= ${{0.36 \times 1} \over {0.025}}$ = 14.4 = 144 $ \times $ 10-1
[Cu2+] = [Sn2+] = 1 M and 298K is :
Cu(s) + Sn2+(aq.) $ \to $ Cu2+(aq.) + Sn(s);
($E_{S{n^{2 + }}|Sn}^0 = - 0.16\,V$,
$E_{C{u^{2 + }}|Cu}^0 = 0.34\,V$)
Take F = 96500 C mol–1)
Explanation:
= –2 × 96500 [(–0.16) – 0.34] + RT$\left[ {{1 \over 1}} \right]$
= 96500 J
Explanation:
Moles of Ag deposited = ${{108} \over {108}}$ = 1 mole
Anode : 2H2O $ \to $ O2 + 4H+ + 4e-
Here we have to find volume of O2 evolved.
Equivalance of Ag = Equivalance of O2
$ \Rightarrow $ 1 $ \times $ 1 = nO2 $ \times $ 4
$ \Rightarrow $ nO2 = ${1 \over 4}$ mol
$ \therefore $ Volume of O2 evolved
= ${1 \over 4}$ $ \times $ 22.4
= 5.6 lit
Sn(s) | Sn2+ (aq,1M)||Pb2+ (aq,1M)|Pb(s)
the ratio ${{\left[ {S{n^{2 + }}} \right]} \over {\left[ {P{b^{2 + }}} \right]}}$ when this cell attains equilibrium is _________.
(Given $E_{S{n^{2 + }}|Sn}^0 = - 0.14V$,
$E_{P{b^{2 + }}|Pb}^0 = - 0.13V$, ${{2.303RT} \over F} = 0.06$)
Explanation:
Sn(s) + Pb+2(aq) $ \to $ Sn+2(aq) + Pb(s)
Apply Nernst equation :
Ecell = $E_{cell}^0$ - ${{0.06} \over 2}\log {{\left[ {S{n^{ + 2}}} \right]} \over {\left[ {P{b^{ + 2}}} \right]}}$ ....(1)
$ \Rightarrow $ $E_{cell}^0$ = -0.13 + 0.14 = 0.01 V
At equilibrium : Ecell = 0
Substituting in (1), we get
0 = 0.01 - ${{0.06} \over 2}\log {{\left[ {S{n^{ + 2}}} \right]} \over {\left[ {P{b^{ + 2}}} \right]}}$
$ \Rightarrow $ $\log {{\left[ {S{n^{ + 2}}} \right]} \over {\left[ {P{b^{ + 2}}} \right]}}$ = ${1 \over 3}$
$ \Rightarrow $ ${{\left[ {S{n^{2 + }}} \right]} \over {\left[ {P{b^{2 + }}} \right]}}$ = 2.15
2H2O $ \to $ O2 + 4H$ \oplus $ + 4e– ; $E_{red}^0$ = 1.23 V
(R = 8.314 J mol–1 K–1 ; Temp = 298 k;
oxygen under std. atm. pressure of 1 bar)
Explanation:
$ \Rightarrow $ E = 1.23 + 0.0591 × pH
$ \Rightarrow $ E = 1.23 + 0.0591 × (5)
$ \Rightarrow $ E = 1.52
