Given that `E^(@)(Zn^(2+)//Zn)=0.76V, E^(@)(H^(+)//H_(2))=0.00" V "`. What is the value of electrode potential of `Mg^(+)//Mg` electrode when it is dipped in a solution in which concentration of `Mg^(+)` is 0.01 M ? (Given `E_((Mg^(2+)//Mg))^(@)=-2.36" V "`

Answer» Correct Answer - `-2.419" V "`
According to Nernst equation
`E=E^(º)-(0.0591)/(n)"log"(1)/([M^(n+)(aq)])=(-2.36" V ")-((0.0591" V "))/(2)"log"(1)/((0.01))`
`=(-2.36" V ")-((0.0591V))/(2)"log "10^(2)=-2.36" V "-0.0591" V "=-2.419" V "`
