The standard Gibbs free energy change (∆Gº in kJ mol–1), in a Daniel cell ( V Eºcell =1.1 V  ), when 2 moles of Zn(s) is oxidized at 298 K, is closest to (A) – 212.3 (B) – 106.2 (C) – 424.6 (D) – 53.1 

Answer»

Correct Option :- (C) – 424.6 

Explanation :-

Zn + Cu+2 → Zn+2 + Cu 

2Zn + 2Cu+2 → 2Zn+2 + 2Cu  

For 2 moles of Zn, n = 4 

∆Gº = –nFEºCell = – 4 × 96500 × 1.1 = – 424.6 kJ
