The cell reaction of an electrochemical cell is \(Cu^{2+}(C_{1}) + Zn \to Cu + Zn^{2+}(C_{2})\).
The change in free energy will be the function of:
\(1. \ ln (C_{1}+C_{2})\)
2. \(ln (\frac{C_{2}}{C_{1}})\)
\(3. \ ln C_{2}\)
\(4. \ lnC_{1}\)
For the disproportionation of copper:

1. 0.49 V
2. – 0.19 V
3. 0.38 V
4. – 0.38 V
A cell reaction become spontaneous when:
1. ∆Gº is negative
2. ∆Gº is positive
3. is positive
4. is negative
At infinite dilution, equivalent conductances of Ba+2 & Cl– ions are 127 & 76 ohm–1cm–1 eq–1 respectively. Equivalent conductance (ohm–1cm–1 eq–1) of BaCl2 at infinite dilution is:
1. 139.5
2. 101.5

The value of E0 cell for the following reaction is:
\(Cu^{2+}+ Sn^{2+}\to Cu +Sn^{4+ } \)
(Given, equilibrium constant is 106)
1. | 0.17 | 2. | 0.01 |
3. | 0.05 | 4. | 1.77 |
The standard Emf of a galvanic cell involving cell reaction with n = 2 is found to be 0.295 V at 25 ºC. The equilibrium constant of the reaction would be:
(Given F = 96500 C mol–1; R = 8.314 J K–1 mol–1)
1. 4.0 × 1012
2. 1.0 × 102
3. 1.0 × 1010
4. 2.0 × 1011
In the silver plating of copper, K[Ag(CN)2] is used instead of AgNO3. The reason is:
1. | A thin layer of Ag is formed on Cu |
2. | More voltage is required |
3. | Ag+ ions are completely removed from the solution |
4. | Less availability of Ag+ ions, as Cu can not displace Ag from [Ag(CN)2]– ion |
Consider the following reaction:
\(\frac{4}{3} \mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightarrow \frac{2}{3} \mathrm{Al}_2 \mathrm{O}_3(\mathrm{~s})\)
The minimum e.m.f. required to carry out the electrolysis of Al2O3 is:
(F = 96500 C mol–1)
1. 2.14 V
2. 4.28 V
3. 6.42 V
4. 8.56 V
The EMF of a Daniel cell at 298 K is E1 Zn|ZnSO4(0.01 M) || CuSO4(1.0 M)|Cu.
When the concentration of ZnSO4 is 1.0 M and that of CuSO4 is 0.01 M, the EMF is changed to E2. The correct relationship between E1 and E2 is:
1. | E1 > E2 | 2. | E1 < E2 |
3. | E1 = E2 | 4. | E2 = 0 ≠ E1 |
The following metals should be arranged so that they push one another out of the salt solution in that order:
Al, Cu, Fe, Mg, and Zn.
1. Cu <Fe<Zn< Al< Mg
2. Zn< Fe< Cu< Mg< Al
3. Mg<Cu <Zn <Fe< Al
4. Al<Zn<Fe< Cu< Mg
