Nernst Equation

Question

Statement 1: $E_{{Ag}^{+} / Ag}$ increases with increase in concentration of Ag⁺ ions.
Statement 2: $E_{{Ag}^{+} / Ag}$ has a positive value.

Moderate

A

Both statements 1 and 2 are correct
B

Both statements 1 and 2 are incorrect
C

Statement 1 is correct statement 2 is incorrect
D

Statement 1 is incorrect statement 2 is correct

Solution

Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
$\begin{array}{l} E = E^{\circ} - \frac{0 .0591}{1} \log \frac{1}{[{Ag}^{+}]} \\ = E^{\circ} + 0 .059 \log [{Ag}^{+}] \end{array}$
Thus, $E_{{Ag}^{+} / Ag}$ increases with increase in concentration of Ag⁺.
