The standard EMF of Daniell cell is $1.10$ volt. The maximum electrical work (in $\mathrm{kJ}$ ) obtained from the Daniell cell is
  1. 213.2
  2. 211.3
  3. 212.3
  4. 212.2

Solution

- Standard EMF (E) = 1.10 volts - Number of electrons transferred \((\mathrm{n})\) in the Daniell cell reaction \(=2\) (from the balanced reaction: \(\left.\mathrm{Zn}+\mathrm{Cu}^{2+} ightarrow \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}+\mathrm{Cu}ight)\) $\Delta \mathrm{G}=-\mathrm{nF} \mathrm{E}^{\circ}{ }_{\text {cell }}=-2 \times 96500 \times 1.1 \mathrm{~J}=212.3 \mathrm{~kJ}$.
