Q:

The reduction potential of hydrogen half-cell will be negative if :
(1) PH2= 2 atm and [H+] = 2.0 M
(2) PH2= 1 atm and [H+] = 2.0 M
(3) PH2= 1 atm and [H+] = 1.0 M
(4) PH2= 2 atm and [H+] = 1.0 M

A) Option 1 B) Option 2
C) Option 3 D) Option 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Option 4

Explanation:

 H+-e-12H2   

Apply Nernst equation  

 

E=0-0.0591logPH212H+  

 

 E=-0.0591log2121  

 

Therefore E is Negative
