Answer:
The electrochemical equivalent of copper, Cu, is 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁷ g/C
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The element for which the electrochemical equivalent is sought = Copper
The atomic mass of copper = 63.5
The electrochemical equivalent, 'Z', of an element or a substance is the mass, 'm', of the element or substance deposited by one coulomb of electricity, which is equivalent to a 1 ampere current flowing for a period of 1 second
Mathematically, we have;
m = Z·I·t = Z·Q
We have;
Cu²⁺ (aq) + 2·e⁻ → Cu
Therefore, one mole of Cu, is deposited by 2 moles of electrons
The charge carried one mole of electrons = 1 Faraday = 96500 C
∴ The charge carried two moles of electrons, Q = 2 × 96500 C = 193,000 C
Given that the mass of an atom of Cu = 63.5 a.m.u., the mass of one mole of Cu, m = 63.5 g
∴ Z = 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁴ g/C = 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁷ g/C
The electrochemical equivalent of copper, Cu, is Z = 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁷ g/C
<u>Answer:</u> The standard potential of the cell is 0.77 V
<u>Explanation:</u>
We know that:
The substance having highest positive reduction potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.
The half reaction follows:
<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>
<u>Reduction half reaction:</u> ( × 2)
To calculate the of the reaction, we use the equation:
Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.
Putting values in above equation follows:
Hence, the standard potential of the cell is 0.77 V
