For the disproportionation of copper
2Cu+ Cu2+ + Cu, Eo is
(Given Eo for Cu2+/Cu is 0.34 V and
Eo for Cu2+/Cu+ is 0.15 V.)
2Cu+ Cu2+ + Cu, Eo is
(Given Eo for Cu2+/Cu is 0.34 V and
Eo for Cu2+/Cu+ is 0.15 V.)
- A0.49 V
- B0.19 V
- C0.38 V
- D0.38 V

Correct answer: C
Cu2+ + 2e– Cu; E°1 = 0.34 V .....(1)
Cu2+ + e– Cu+
; E°2 = 0.15 V.....(2)
Cu+ + e– Cu; E°3 = ? .....(3)
Go1 = -20.34F
and Go2 = -10.15F
and Go3 = -1E°3F
Also, Go1 = Go2 + Go3
-0.68F = -0.15F - E°3 F
E°3 = 0 68 - 0 15 = 0 53 V
E°cell = 0.53 - 0.15 = 0.38 V
