MCQ
The standard reduction potential for $F{e^{2 + }}/Fe$ and $S{n^{2 + }}/Sn$ electrodes are $ - 0.44$ and $ - 0.14$ volt respectively. For the given cell reaction $F{e^{2 + }} + Sn\, \to Fe + S{n^{2 + }}$, the standard EMF is ...............$\mathrm{V}$
  • A
    $+ 0.30$
  • B
    $-0.58 $
  • C
    $+ 0.58 $
  • $-0.30$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-0.30$
d
(d)For the cell reaction, $Fe$  acts as cathode and $Sn$  as anode. Hence,

$E_{cell}^o = E_{{\rm{cathode}}}^o - E_{{\rm{anode}}}^o$ $= -0.44 -(-0.14)= -0.30\,V$ 

The negative $EMF$ suggests that the reaction goes spontaneously in reversed direction.
