Question

The reaction, H2(g) + AgCl(s) → H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) + Ag(s) occurs in the galvanic cell :

Options

A.Ag | AgCl(s)| KCl(soln) || AgNO3 | 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

In this cell H2 is oxidised to H+ and acts as anode while Ag+ is reduced to Ag. The cell may be represented as
