Electrochemical cell

Chemistry Level pending

The electrochemical cell shown below is a concentration cell.

M I M2+ (saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt, M X 2 MX_2 ) II M2+ (0.001 mol dm 3 ^{-3} ) I M

The emf of the cell depends on the difference in concentrations of M 2 + ^{2+} ions at the two electrodes. The emf of the cell at 298 K is 0.059 V.

The solubility product ( K s p : m o l 3 d m 9 K_{sp}: mol^3 dm^{-9} ) of M X 2 MX_2 at 298 K based on the information available for the given concentration cell is (take 2.303 x R x 298/F = 0.059 V)

4 x 1 0 12 4x 10^{-12} 1 x 1 0 12 1x 10^{-12} 4 x 1 0 15 4x 10^{-15} 1 x 1 0 15 1x 10^{-15}
