From the electrochemical series, Cu can displace Ag from silver nitrate solution Write Nernst equation for the above cell reaction

Answer»

Solution :Cell REACTION is `CU(s)+AG(aq)to Cu^(2+)(aq)+2Ag(s)`
`therefore `Nernst equation can be written as
`E(cell)=E_(cell)^@-(2.303RT)/(nF)log[[Cu^(2+)]]/[Ag^+]^2`OR `E(cell)=E_(cell)^@-0.059/2log[[Cu^(2+)]]/[Ag^+]^2`at 298 K
