MHT CET 2024 Chemistry question
Consider the following cell Zn(s)\left|Zn^{2+}_{(1M)}\right\|KCl_{(sat)}\left|Hg_2Cl_2\ (paste)\right| Hg If E cell = 1.007 V and E calomel = 0.242 V What is the standard potential of Zn ?
Answer: (A)
Solution
In the cell, Zn is the anode (oxidation) and the calomel electrode is the cathode (reduction). , so , giving V. This is the reduction potential of
