    What is the potential of a cell containing two hydrogen electrodes the negative one in contact with \[{{10}^{-8}}\]M \[{{H}^{+}}\]and positive one in contact with 0.025 M \[{{H}^{+}}\] [MP PMT 2000]

    A)                 0.18 V   

    B)                 0.28 V

    C)                 0.38 V   

    D)                 0.48 V

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               \[\frac{1}{2}{{H}_{2}}\to {{H}^{+}}({{10}^{-8}}M)+{{e}^{-}}(\text{oxidation})\]            \[{{H}^{+}}(0.025\,M)+{{e}^{-}}\to \frac{1}{2}{{H}_{2}}(\text{reduction})\]            Cell reaction is :                 \[{{H}^{+}}(0.025\,M)\to {{H}^{+}}({{10}^{-8}}\,M)\]; \[{{E}_{\text{cell}}}=0.38\,\,V\].
