    Which of the following will form a cell with the highest voltage?

    A) \[1\,MA{{g}^{+}},1\,MC{{o}^{2+}}\]

    B) \[2M\,A{{g}^{+}},2\,MC{{o}^{2+}}\]

    C) \[0.1\,M\,A{{g}^{+}},2\,MC{{o}^{2+}}\]

    D) \[2\,M\,A{{g}^{+}},0.1\,MC{{o}^{2+}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Oxidation potential of Co is more than Ag, hence cell reaction will be \[Co+2A{{g}^{+}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{o}^{2+}}+2Ag\] \[{{E}_{cell}}=E_{cell}^{{}^\circ }-\frac{RT\,ln[C{{o}^{2+}}]}{nF{{[A{{g}^{+}}]}^{2}}}\], the lesser the value of the factor \[\frac{[C{{o}^{2+}}]}{{{[A{{g}^{+}}]}^{2}}}\] greater will be value of \[{{E}_{cell}}.\]
