Frequently Asked Questions

How to calculate standard cell potential? +

E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode (reduction potentials). Higher reduction potential = cathode (gets reduced). Lower reduction potential = anode (gets oxidized). ΔG° = -nFE°cell. At equilibrium: E°cell = (RT/nF) × lnK = (0.0591/n) × logK at 25°C. JEE Main tests all these interconversions between E°cell, ΔG°, and K.

What is the Nernst equation? +

E = E° - (RT/nF) × lnQ = E° - (0.0591/n) × logQ at 25°C, where Q is reaction quotient. At equilibrium, E = 0 and Q = K. For concentration cells (same electrodes, different concentrations): E = (0.0591/n) × log(C_high/C_low). JEE Main frequently uses Nernst equation for concentration cell problems and equilibrium constant calculations.

What are Faraday's laws of electrolysis? +

First law: mass deposited ∝ charge passed (m = ZIt where Z is electrochemical equivalent). Second law: masses deposited by same charge are proportional to equivalent weights. Practical formula: m = (M/n) × (It/F) where M is molar mass, n is electrons transferred, I is current, t is time, F = 96500 C/mol. JEE Main tests electrolysis calculations extensively — always calculate moles of electrons first.
