NEET Chemistry Conductance MCQ Question
What is the standard electrode potential for the reduction of AgCl(s) to Ag(s) and Cl⁻, and how does it compare to the reduction of Ag⁺ to Ag(s)?
0.22 V for AgCl(s); lower than Ag⁺ reduction
0.22 V for AgCl(s); higher than Ag⁺ reduction
0.80 V for AgCl(s); lower than Ag⁺ reduction
0.80 V for AgCl(s); higher than Ag⁺ reduction
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The standard electrode potential for AgCl(s) reduction to Ag(s) and Cl⁻ is 0.22 V, which is lower than the reduction of Ag⁺ to Ag(s) at 0.80 V, as provided in the NCERT context.
