`28.30`
46.29

Solution :Cell reaction
(i) `AG^(+)+e^(-)TOAG(s),E_(red)^(o)=0.8V`
(ii) `C_(6)H_(12)O_(6)+H_(2)OtoC_(6)H_(12)O_(7)+2H^(+)+2e^(-),E_("oxid")=-0.05V` ltBrgt Hence, for reaction
`2Ag^(+)+C_(6)H_(12)O_(6)+H_(2)Oto2Ag_((s))+C_(6)H_(12)O_(7)+2H^(+)`
`E_(cell)^(o)=(0.8-0.05)`
`=0.75V`
`E_(cell)^(o)=E_("ANODE")^(o)-E_("cathode")^(o)`
`=[-0.05-(-0.8)]V`
on the basis of oxidised electrode potential
`=0.75V` By nernst EQUATION
`E_(cell)=E_(cell)^(o)=(2.303RT)/(nF)log_(10)K`
At equilibrium `E_(cell)=0`
`thereforeE_(Cell)^(o)=(2.303RT)/(2)log_(10)K`
`0.75=(0.0592)/(2)log_(10)K) `
`log_(10)K=(2xx0.75)/(0.0592)=25.33`
or In `K=2.303xxlog_(10)K`
`=2.303xx25.33=58.35`.
