Answer» Cell potential or emf of a cell : It is defined as the potential difference between two electrodes, responsible for an external flow of electrons from the left hand electrode at higher potential (anode), to the right hand electrode at lower potential (cathode), when connected to form an electrochemical or galvanic cell. Since there is oxidation reaction at left hand electrode (LHE) or anode and reduction reaction at right hand electrode (RHE) or cathode, emf of the galvanic, Ecell, is given by Ecell = (Eoxi)anode + (Ered)cathode Since by IUPAC conventions, generally reduction potentials are used, hence, for the given cell, (∵Eoxi = - Ered) ∴ Ecell = (Ered)cathode - (Ered)anode Similarly, standard emf of the cell, E0cell is given by E0cell = (E0red)cathode - (E0red)anode |

Predicating the products of electrolysis: What do you expect to be the half reactions in the electrolysis of aqueous `Na_(2)So_(4)` solution. Strategy: Before we look at the electrode reations, we should consider the following facts: (1) Since `Na_(2)So_(2)` does not hydrolyze in water, the `pH`of the solution is close to `7. (2)` The `Na^(+)` ions are not reduced at the cathode and the `SO_(4)^(2-)` ions are not oxidized at the anode. These conclusions are drawn from the electrolysis of water in the presence of sulphuric acid in aqueous sodium chloride solution. |
|
Answer» The electrode reaction are Anode: `2H_(2)(l) rarr O_(2)(g) + 4H^(+)(aq.)+4e^(-)` Cathode: `2H_(2)O(l)+2e^(-) rarr H_(2)(g)+2OH^(-)` The overall reaction, obtained by doubling the cathode reaction coefficients and adding the result to the anode reaction, is `6H_(2)O(l) rarr 2H_(2)(g)+O_(2)(g)+4H^(+)(aq.)+4OH^(-)(aq.)` If the `H^(+)` and `OH^(-)` ions ar allowed to mix, then `4H^(+)(aq.)+4OH^(-)(aq.) rarr (4H_(2))(l)` and the overall reaction becomes `2H_(2)O(l) rarr 2H_(2)(g)+O_(2)(g)` |

At infinite dilution the ionic condutanc is maximum forA. `F^(-)`B. `Na^(+)`C. `H^(+)`D. `OH^(-)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C Since the speed of an ion varies with the potenital applied, it is better to use the term ionic mobility which is defined as the distance travelled by an ion per second under a potential gradient of `1` volt per metre. Potential gradient is given by the potential difference applied at the electrodes divided by the distance between the electrodes. The ionic mobility of `H^(+)` ions is found to be five to ten times that of other ions, expect `OH^(-)` ion. The hydrogen ion, because of its small size has high charge density and is heavily hydrated. Thus, we expect the mobility of `H^(+)` ion to be low rather than high. The high mobility of `H^(+)` ions is hydroxlytic solvents such as `H_(2)O` can be explained by Grouttus type meachanism in which a proton moves raopidly from `H_(3)O^(+)` to a hydrogen-bonded water molecule and is transferred along a series of hydrogen bonded water molecules by a rarrangement of hydrogen bonds (just like a relay race). Amongest negatives ions, `OH^(-)` has the highest ionic mobility. |

|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Molar conductivity `(Lambda_(m))` is the conductivity per unit molar concentration and is given by the expression: `Lambda_(m) = (kappa)/(c)` where `c` is in mol `m^(-3)` units if `kappa` is expressed in `S m^(-)` and in mol `cm^(-3)` units it k is expressed in `S cm^(-1)`. Thus molar conductivity is usually expressed in `S m^(2) cm^(-1)` or `S cm^(2) mol^(-1)`. `Lambda_(m)(S m^(2) mol^(-1))= (k(S m^(-1)))/("molarity" (mol L^(-1)) xx 1000 L m^(-3))` `Lambda_(m)(S m^(2) mol^(-1))= (k(S m^(-1)) xx 1000 cm^(3) L^(-1))/("molarity" (mol L^(-1)) xx 1000 L m^(-3))` It may be remebers that, `S m^(2) mol^(-1) = 10000 S cm^(2) mol^(-1)` |

|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Mathematically ionic mobility `= ("ionic velocity")/("potential gradient")` `= ("ionic velocity (cm/s)")/("pot, difference (volt)/distance between the electrodes (cm)")` Thus, the unit of ionic mobility is `cm^(2) "volt"^(-1)s^(-1)` |
