For the cell reaction, Cu 2+ C 1 .aq +Zn s = Zn 2+ C 2 .aq +Cu s of an electrochemical cell, the change in free energyΔGat a given temperature is a function of

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

We know ΔG o =−nFE°
Again according to Nernst equation,
E°=0.059nlog[Zn2+][Cu2+], at 25°C
So ΔG o (free energy change) in an electrochemical cell at a given temperature is a function of
ln[Zn2+][Cu2+]=lnC2C1
