In wich of the following electrochemical cell the overall cell reaction is :A. ` Zn|H_2SO_4(aq) |H_2(g) |Pt`B. ` Zn|H_2SO_4(aq) |H_2(g) |Pt`C. `Zn|ZnSO_4(aq)|H_2SO_4(aq)|H_2(g)|Pt`D. `Zn|ZnSO_4(aq)|H_2SO_4(aq)|H_2(g)|Pt` |

Answer» Correct Answer - D For the cell: `Zn|ZnSO_4 (aq) ||H_2SO_4(aq)|H_2(g)|Pt` LHE reaction: `Zn rarr Zn^(2+) +2e` RHE reaction : `2H^(+) +2e rarr K_2` Net reaction: `Zn+e2H^+ rarr Zn^+ + H_2` or `Zn(s) + H_2SO_4 (aq)rarr ZnSO_4 (aq) = H_2(g)` |
