occurs in the galvanic cell -
occurs in the galvanic cell -
Options
A.Ag | AgCl(s) | KCl (soln) | AgNO3 (soln) | Ag
B.Pt | H2(g) | HCl (soln) | AgNO3 (soln) | Ag
C.Pt | H2(g) | HCl (soln) | AgCl(s) | Ag
D.Pt | H2(g) | KCl (soln) | AgCl(s) | Ag
Solution
(C)
H2 → H+ + e-
e- + AgCl → Ag + Cl-
_____________________
AgCl +
H2 → Ag + H+ + Cl-
(D)
H2 → H+ + e- (KCl is neutral solution where [H+] = 10-7 M)
AgCl + e- Ag + Cl-
_____________________
H2 + AgCl Ag + H+ + Cl-
e- + AgCl → Ag + Cl-
_____________________
AgCl +
(D)
AgCl + e- Ag + Cl-
