Calculate the mass of Ag deposited at cathode when a current of 2 amperes was passed through a solution of AgNO3 for 15 minutes.
(Given : Molar mass of Ag = 108 g mol–1 1F = 96500 C mol–1)
Define fuel cell and write its two advantages.
These are voltaic cells in which the reactants are continuously supplied to the electrodes. There are designed to convert the energy from the combustion of a fuel like a hydrogen, methane, methanol, etc directly into electrical energy.
Advantage : -
(1) A fuel cell works with an efficiency of 60 to 70 %
(2) They are pollution free

Zinc
Nickel
Tin
Lead

The equivalent conductance of NaCl at concentration C at infinite dilution are λC and λ∞ respectively. The correct relationship between λC and λ∞ is given as (where the constant B is positive)
λC = λ∞ +(B)C
λC = λ∞ -(B)C
λC = λ∞ -(B)
λC = λ∞ -(B)
Given below are the half-cell reactions
Mn2+ + 2e- → Mn; Eo = - 1.18 eV
