    For the following cell with hydrogen electrodes at two different pressures pi and?2 \[\underset{{{p}_{1}}}{\mathop{\operatorname{P}t({{H}_{2}})}}\,\,\,\underset{1M}{\mathop{\left| {{H}^{+}}(aq) \right|}}\,\,\,\underset{{{p}_{2}}}{\mathop{\operatorname{P}t({{H}_{2}})}}\,\]  emf is given by   AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2002

    A) \[\frac{RT}{F}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{p}_{1}}}{{{p}_{2}}}\]                       

    B) \[\frac{RT}{2F}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{p}_{1}}}{{{p}_{2}}}\]     

    C)           \[\frac{RT}{F}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{p}_{2}}}{{{p}_{1}}}\]       

    D)           \[\frac{RT}{2F}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{p}_{2}}}{{{p}_{1}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    LHS half cell              \[\underset{{{p}_{1}}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}(g)}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}2{{H}^{+}}(1M)+2{{e}^{-}}\] RHS half cell \[{{p}_{1}}\]              \[\begin{align}   & \underline{2{{H}^{+}}(1M)+2{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{{{p}_{2}}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}(g)}}\,} \\  & \underline{\underset{{{p}_{1}}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}}}\,(g)\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{{{p}_{2}}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}}}\,(g)} \\ \end{align}\]              \[E_{cell}^{o}=0.00\,V,\,K=\frac{{{p}_{2}}}{{{p}_{1}}},\,n=2\]              \[{{E}_{cell}}=E_{cell}^{o}-\frac{RT}{nF}{{\log }_{e}}K=0-\frac{RT}{2F}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{p}_{2}}}{{{p}_{1}}}\]              \[{{E}_{cell}}=\frac{RT}{2F}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{{{p}_{1}}}{{{p}_{2}}}\]
