A button cell used in watches functions as following
Zn(s) + Ag2O(s) + H2O(l) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2Ag(s) + Zn2+(aq) + 2OH(aq)
If half-cell potentials are-

Zn2+(aq) + 2e→ Zn(s)  Eo = – 0.76 V 
Ag2O(s) + H2O(l) + 2e → 2Ag(s) + 2OH(aq) Eo = 0.34 V

The cell potential will be:

1. 0.42 V 2. 0.84 V
3. 1.34 V 4. 1.10 V

Given the standard electrode potentials:

K+/K = –2.93 V
Ag+/Ag = 0.80 V
Hg2+/Hg = 0.79 V
Mg2+/Mg = –2.37 V
Cr3+/Cr = – 0.74 V
The correct increasing order of reducing power of the metals is:  
1. Cr < Mg < K < Ag < Hg 2. Mg < K < Ag < Hg < Cr
3. K < Ag < Hg < Cr < Mg 4. Ag < Hg < Cr < Mg < K

Consider the following relations for emf of an electrochemical cell:

(a) emf of cell = (Oxidation potential of anode) – (Reduction potential of cathode)
(b) emf of cell = (Oxidation potential of anode) + (Reduction potential of cathode)
(c) emf of cell = (Reduction potential of anode) + (Reduction potential of cathode)
(d) emf of cell = (Oxidation potential of anode) – (Oxidation potential of cathode)


Which of the following combinations correctly represents the relation for the emf of the cell?

1. (a) and (b) 2. (c) and (d)
3. (b) and (d) 4. (c) and (a)
