Question

For the following reaction,
Pb(s)+Hg2SO4(s)PbSO4(s)+2Hg(l);
Eocell=0.92 V
Ksp(PbSO4)=2×108, Ksp(Hg2SO4)=1×106
Hence, Ecell is:
(take 2=1.4, log0.14=0.85)

A
0.52 V

Solution

The correct option is D 0.95 V
We know,
Q=[Pb2+][Hg2+2]=Ksp(PbSO4)Ksp(Hg2SO4)=2×1081×106
=2×102=0.14
By using the relation,
Ecell=Eocell0.0592log0.14
Substituting the values, we get
=0.920.0592×(0.85)
=0.945 V0.95 V
