The cell, Zn|Zn2+ (1M)|| Cu2+ (1M|Cu(Eocell = 1.10 V), was allowed to be completely discharged at 298 K. THe relative concentration of Zn2+ to Cu2+  open square brackets fraction numerator open parentheses Zn to the power of 2 plus end exponent close parentheses over denominator left parenthesis Cu to the power of 2 plus end exponent right parenthesis end fraction close square brackets space is

  • antilog (24.08)

  • 37.3

  • 1037.3

  • 9.65 ×104

Solution

C.

1037.3

straight E subscript cell space equals space straight E subscript cell superscript straight o space minus space fraction numerator 0.0591 over denominator straight n end fraction space log space straight Q
where space straight Q space equals space fraction numerator open square brackets Zn to the power of 2 plus end exponent close square brackets over denominator left square bracket Cu to the power of 2 plus end exponent right square bracket end fraction
space fraction numerator open square brackets Zn to the power of 2 plus end exponent close square brackets over denominator left square bracket Cu to the power of 2 plus end exponent right square bracket end fraction space equals space 10 to the power of 37.3 end exponent
