Oxidation potential of unimoles of calomel isA. `+ 0.25` VB. `0.00`VC. `+0.278 V`D. `-0.28V` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D Calomel is used as a secondary reference electrode. Since Hg is less reactive than H , its standard reduction potential is positive . Hence , its standard oxidation potential must be negative , ie, `-2.28 V` . [As standard reduction potential = -standard oxidation potential.] |
