Answer:
Max. work done in 60 g of copper plated out is 200472.14 J
Explanation:
Given cell reaction is:
Standard reduction potential of Zn electrode () is 0.763 V.
Standard reduction potential of Cu electrode () is -0.337 V.
Copper acts as cathode and Zinc acts as anode.
Cell potential (E) = E° cathode - E° anode
= 0.763 - (-0.337)
= 1.10 V
formula for the work done is as follows:
Here, n is no. of electron involved in the reaction.
F(Faraday's constant) = 96500
In the given reaction, n = 2
Therefore, 212300 J work is done by reducting 1 mol of copper.
Copper given is 60 g.
Molecular mass of copper is 63.54 g/mol.
Max. work done in 60 g of copper plated out is:
