For the cell reaction, `2Cr^(4+)+Coto2Ce^(3+)+Co^(2+)" "E_((cell))^(@)` is 1.89V and `E_(Co//Co^(2+))^(@)=-0.028`. If `E_(Ce^(4+)//Ce^(3+))^(@)`A. `-1.64V`B. `+1.64V`C. `-2.08V`D. `+2.17V` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B In this cell Co is oxidised and it acts as anode and Ce acts as cathode. `E_(Cell)^(@)=E_("cathode")^(@)-E_("anode")^(@)=1.89=E_(Cell)^(@)-(-0.28)` `E_(Cell)^(@)=-1.89-0.28=1.61`volt. |
