Chapter 25, Problem 25.29P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The cell voltage generated by aluminium concentration cell has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

The relationship between cell potential and reaction quotient is given by

  $\begin{array}{l}{\text{E}}_{\text{cell}}\text{=}{\text{E}}^{\text{0}}{}_{\text{cell}}\text{-}\left(\frac{\text{RT}}{{\text{ν}}_{\text{e}}\text{F}}\right)\text{ln}\text{Q}\\ \\ \text{R is}\text{gas}\text{constant}\\ \text{T}\text{is}\text{temperature}\\ \text{Q is}\text{reaction Quotient}\\ {\text{ν}}_{\text{e}}\text{is}\text{the}\text{number}\text{of}\text{electrons}\text{involved}\text{in}\text{cell}\text{reaction}\end{array}$
