The measured voltage of the cell, Pt(s) H 2 (1.0 atm) H + (aq)| Ag + (1.0 M) Ag(s) is 1.02 V at 25 o C . GivenEcellois 0.80 V , calculate the pH of the solution.

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

E cell  =  E cell o − 0.059 n  log [H + ] 2 [Ag + ] 2
=  E cell o − 0.059 × 2 2 log H + Ag +
E cell o −0.059 × log H + 1
=  E cell o  + 0.059  (− log[H + ]) 1
=  E cell o  + 0.059 pH
So pH =  E cell − E cell o 0.059  =  1.02−0.80 0.059  = 3.73
