NEETChemistryElectrochemistryMCQ+4 / −1
For the disproportionation of copper
2Cu+  →\to→ Cu2+ + Cu, Eo is
(Given Eo for Cu2+/Cu is 0.34 V and
Eo for Cu2+/Cu+ is 0.15 V.)
  1. A
    0.49 V
  2. B
    −-− 0.19 V
  3. C
    0.38 V
  4. D
    −-−0.38 V

Correct answer: C

Cu2+ + 2e– →\to→ Cu; E°1 = 0.34 V .....(1)

Cu2+ + e– →\to→ Cu+ ; E°2 = 0.15 V.....(2)

Cu+ + e– →\to→ Cu; E°3 = ? .....(3)

∴\therefore∴ Δ\Delta ΔGo1 = -2×\times×0.34×\times×F

and Δ\Delta ΔGo2 = -1×\times×0.15×\times×F

and Δ\Delta ΔGo3 = -1×\times×E°3×\times×F

Also, Δ\Delta ΔGo1 = Δ\Delta ΔGo2 + Δ\Delta ΔGo3

⇒\Rightarrow⇒ -0.68F = -0.15F - E°3 ×\times× F

⇒\Rightarrow⇒ E°3 = 0 68 - 0 15 = 0 53 V

∴\therefore∴ E°cell = 0.53 - 0.15 = 0.38 V
