Chapter 25, Problem 25.30P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

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

Concept Introduction:

The relationship between cell potential and reaction quotient is given by

  ${\text{E}}_{\text{cell}}\text{=}{\text{E}}_{cell}^0-\left(\frac{\text{RT}}{{\text{ν}}_{\text{e}}\text{F}}\right)\text{ln}\text{Q}$

Here, R is the gas constant.

T is Temperature

Q is Reaction Quotient

${\text{ν}}_{\text{e}}$ is number of electrons involved in cell reaction.
