Write the Nernst equation and explain the terms involved |
|
Answer» Nernst equation can be given as, E = E0 - \(\frac{2.303\,RT}{nF}log_{10}\,\frac{[Products]}{[Reactants]}\) where, E0 = Standard potential of electrode or cell, n = Number of moles of electrons used in reaction, F = Faraday = 96500 C/mol e- , [Products] = Concentration of products, [Reactants] = Concentration of reactants, T = temperature in K and R = gas constant = 8.314 J K-1 mol-1 |
