Question#1
At 298K, the standard electrode potential of Cu+2/Cu, Zn+2/Zn, Fe+2/Fe and Ag+1/Ag are 0.34V, -0.76 , -0.44 and 0.80V respectively. On the basis of standard electrode potential which of following reaction can't occur?
NEET-2022
Trick In electrochemical series upper metal/H can replace lower metal/H
Question#2
\( Mg^{+2} + 2e^- \rightarrow Mg \ E^o =-2.37V \) MDCAT2019
\( Zn^{+2} + 2e^- \rightarrow Zn \ E^o =-0.76V \)
\( 2H^+ + 2e^- \rightarrow H_2 \ E^o =0.00V \)
\( Cu^{+2} + 2e^- \rightarrow Cu \ E^o =+0.34V \)
\( Cl_2 + 2e^- \rightarrow 2Cl^- \ E^o =+1.36V \)
\( Au^{+3} + 3e^- \rightarrow Au \ E^o =+1.50V \)
Keeping in view the values of standard reduction potential given below, which one of the following would you select as a feasible redox chemical reaction?
Question#3
A cell is constructed of the
following two half cells. What is the \( E^o \) of cell ETEA2016
\( Ag^+ + e^- \rightarrow Ag
+ 0.08V \)
\( Al^{+3} + e^- \rightarrow
Al -1.67V \)
TRICK: Change
the sign of lower value and add them (0.8+ 1.67)
\( E^o_{cell} = E^o_{oxi}+ E^o_{red} \)
Question#4

Question#5
Study the following facts MDCAT2015
\( Zn \rightarrow Zn^{+2} + 2e^- \ E^o = +0.76V \)
\( Cu \rightarrow Cu^{+2} + 2e^- \ E^o = -0.34V \)
