For the reaction
Zn(s) + Cu2+ (aq) \(\text { ⇌ }\) Cu(s) + Zn2+ (aq)
Reaction Quotient = \(\frac{\left[\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}\right]}{\left[\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}\right]},\) variation of Ecell with Q is given by
(where Q = concentration quotient)
 
OA = 1.10 volts, hence
When Ecell is 1.1591 and concentration ratio is, \(\frac{\left[\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}\right]}{\left[\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}\right]}=10^{-2}\) it implies,
  1. T = 273 ºC
  2. T = 298 ºC
  3. T = 298 K
  4. T = 300 K

Answer

(C) T = 298 K
