For the following cell, (2017)
\(\mathrm{Zn}(\mathrm{~s})\left|\mathrm{ZnSO}_{4}(\mathrm{aq}) \| \mathrm{CuSO}_{4}(\mathrm{aq})\right| \mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{~s})\) 
When the concentration of \(\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}\) is 10 times the concentration of \(\mathrm{Cu}^{2+},\) the expression for \(\Delta \mathrm{G}\) (in J mol–1) is
[F is Faraday constant; R is gas contant; T is temperature; Eº (cell) = 1.1 V]
  1. 2.303 RT + 1.1F
  2. 1.1 F
  3. 2.303 RT – 2.2F
  4. – 2.2 F

Answer

(C) 2.303 RT – 2.2F
