Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

Standard free energies of formation (in kJ/mol) at 298 K are237e^{-237}.2, -394.4 and8d^{-8}.2 for H₂O(l), CO₂(g) and pentane(g) respectively The value of E°cell for the pentane-oxygen fuel cell is:

A

1.0968 V

B

0.0968 V

C

1.968 V

D

2.0968 V

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The standard free energy change is related to the cell potential by the equation ΔG° = -nFE°cell.
