Q6 / 180 · KCET 2018 · Chemistry

For a cell reaction involving two electron changes, \( E_{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=0.3 \mathrm{~V} \) at \( 25^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \). The cell equilibrium
constant of the reaction is

  • A
    \( 10^{-10} \)
  • B
    \( 3 \times 10^{-2} \)
  • C
    \( 10 \)
  • Correct answer
    D
    \( 10^{10} \)

Solution

Using the formula,
\[ \begin{array}{l} E_{\text {cell }}{ }^{0}=\frac{0.0591}{n} \log K \\ 0.3=\frac{0.0591}{2} \log K \\ 10=\log K \\ K=10^{10} \end{array} \]

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
