Question

Tollen’s reagent is used for the detection of aldehyde, when a solution of AgNO3 is added to glucose with NH4OH then gluconic acid is formed.

Ag++eAg; Ered=0.8V

C6H12O6+H2OC6H12O7 (Gluconic acid) +2H++2e;Eoxd=0.05V

Ag(NH3)+2+eAg(S)+2NH3;E=0.337V

[Use 2.303×RTF=0.0592 and FRT=38.92 at 298 K]

(i) 2Ag++C6H12O6+H2O2Ag(s)+C6H12O7+2H+. Find ln K of this reaction.

Solution

The correct option is B

58.38


2Ag++2e2Ag ΔG=2F×0.8 (reduction half)

C6H12O6+H2OC6H12O7+2H++2e ΔG=2F×(0.05)(oxidation half)2Ag++C6H12O6+H2O2Ag+C6H12O7+2H+ ΔG0=1.5F

ΔG0=RTlnK

1.5×F=RT ln K

FRT=38.92 at 298 K

lnK=1.5×38.9258.32
