NEET Chemistry Standard Electrode Potential MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

What is the standard cell potential (E° cell) of a galvanic cell constructed using Zn/Zn²⁺ and Cu²⁺/Cu electrodes at 298K?

A

10 V

B

0.34 V

C

36 V

D

0.44 V

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The standard electrode potential for Zn²⁺/Zn is -0.76 V and for Cu²⁺/Cu is +0.34 V. E° cell = E° cathode - E° anode = 0.34 V - (-0.76 V) = 1.10 V.
