MCQ
The half cell reaction involving quinhydrone electrode is 

If $E_{op}^o$ for this electrode is $1.30\,volt$ then what will be the oxidation electrode potential at $pH = 3$ ? .............. $\mathrm{volt}$

  • $1.48$
  • B
    $1.20$
  • C
    $1.10$
  • D
    $1.05$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.48$
a
${{\text{E}}_{\text{op}}}=\text{E}_{\text{op}}^{o}-\frac{0.059}{2}{{\log }_{10}}{{\left[ {{\text{H}}^{+}} \right]}^{2}}$

${{\text{E}}_{op}}=\text{E}_{o\text{p}}^{o}-0.059\,\,{{\log }_{10\,}}\left[ {{\text{H}}^{+}} \right]$

$=\text{E}_{\text{op}}^{o}+0.059\times \text{pH}$

${=1.3+0.059 \times 3}$

${=1.33+0.177}$

${=1.477}$

${=1.48\, \mathrm{Volt}}$
