Nernst Equation
Question

The reaction which occur in the Galvanic cell is
             MnO4+8H++5Fe2+Mn2++5Fe3++4H2OEMnO4,Mn2+,H+Pt=1.51V and EFe3+,Fe2+Pt=0.77V
(Q) How would the emf of the cell be increased above the standard emf ?

Moderate
Solution

E=ERT5FlnMn2+Fe3+5MnO4H+8Fe2+5
Lowering pH means increasing H+and it will make term less negative and Ecellbecomes positive.
