AIPMT PRELIMS 2001 Chemistry Electrode Potentials MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

Stand electrode potential are Fe²⁺/Fe E° = – 0.44 Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ E° = 0.77 If Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺ and Fe block be kept together, then :-

A

Fe³⁺ increases

B

Fe³⁺ decreases

C

Fe²⁺ remains unchanged

D

Fe²⁺ decreases

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The potential difference between Fe²⁺/Fe and Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ indicates that Fe³⁺ will be reduced to Fe²⁺, increasing the concentration of Fe²⁺.
