Answer to: Given that the standard reduction potentials for M^+ /M and N^+ /N electrodes at 298 K are 0.52 V and 0.25 V respectively.

(b) The standard EMF of the cell is -0.27 V. Explanation: E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode = E°right - E°left E°cell = 0.25 - 0.52 = -0.27 V

Answer to: A hydrogen electrode is immersed in a solution with pH = 0 (HCl). By how much will the potential (reduction) change

(c) decrease by 0.41 V Explanation: pH changes from 0 to 7. ∴ [H+] changes from 1 to 10-7M Accordingly Ered. = -0.059/n log 1/[H+] = 0.059 l...
