STANDARD Chemistry Concentration Cells MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

What will be the emf of the following concentration cell at 25°C? Ag(s)|AgNO₃(0.01 M)||AgNO₃ (0.05M)|Ag(s)

A

0.828 V

B

0.0413 V

C

−0.0413 V

D

−0.828 V

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The emf of a concentration cell is calculated using the Nernst equation. Since E° = 0 for concentration cells, E = −(0.0591/n) log(Q). Here, Q = [0.01]/[0.05], and n = 1, giving E = 0.0413 V.
