Question

Which of the following options regarding Standard Electrode Potential is correct?

• A. It is an extensive property.
• B. It changes on multiplying or dividing the cell reaction by any constant.
• C. It does not change on multiplying or dividing the cell reaction by any constant.
• D. Both (a) and (b)

Answer 1

The correct option is C It does not change on multiplying or dividing the cell reaction by any constant

Standard Electrode Potential:
1. It is an intensive property and hence mass independent.
2. It does not change on multiplying or dividing the cell reaction by any constant.
$\Delta G^0=-nF{E}_{cell}^0$
Where,
$\Delta G^0$=Change in Standard Gibbi's free energy
$n$=no.of moles of elelctron transfered in a reaction
$F$=Faraday constant
$E_{cell}^0$=Standard Electrode potential.
