Give chemical reaction and its potential by dwaring labelled diagram of Daniell cell. Also give primary information indicating which type of cell it is ?

Answer»

Solution :Daniell cell is a voltaic cell which convert CHEMICAL energy into electrical energy.

Chemical reaction: Daniell cell converts the chemical energy liberated during the redox reaction which is as follows:
`Zn_((s))+Cu_((aq))^(2+) to Zn_((aq))^(2+)+Cu_((s))`
Cell POTENTIAL: When in a Daniell cell, concentration of `ZN^(2+)` and `CU^(2+)` ions is unity (1 mol `dm^(-3)`), then it has en electrical potential equal to 1.1 V.
Such a device is called a GALVANIC or a voltaic cell.
