MCQ
The electromotive force for the cell is $C{u_{\left( s \right)}}|Cu_{\left( {0.004\,M} \right)}^{ + 2}||Cu_{\left( {0.1\,M} \right)}^{ + 2}|C{u_{\left( s \right)}}$
  • A
    $ - \frac{{RT}}{F}\,\ln \left( {0.02} \right)$
  • B
    $ + \frac{{RT}}{F}\,\ln \left( {0.04} \right)$
  • C
    $ + \frac{{RT}}{F}\,\ln \left( {0.2} \right)$
  • $ - \frac{{RT}}{F}\,\ln \left( {0.2} \right)$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$ - \frac{{RT}}{F}\,\ln \left( {0.2} \right)$
d
${E}_{\text {cell }}={E}_{\text {cell }}^{o}-\frac{\mathrm{RT}}{\mathrm{nF}} \ln \frac{\left[\mathrm{Cu}^{+2}\right]_{\text {anode }}}{\left[\mathrm{Cu}^{+2}\right]_{\text {cathode }}}$

in concentration cell

$ {E}_{\text {cell }}^{o} =0$

$\therefore $    ${E}_{\text {cell }}=-\frac{\mathrm{RT}}{2 \mathrm{F}}\, \ln \,\frac{0.004}{0.1} $

$=\,-\,\frac{\mathrm{RT}}{2 \mathrm{F}}  \ln (0.2)^{2}$

$\mathrm{E}_{\text {cell }} =-\frac{\mathrm{RT}}{\mathrm{F}}  \ln (0.2)$
