At 25^(@)C, the reduction potential of hydrogen electrode is -0.118V at 1 atm. What is he pH of acid solution used for the construction of the electrode ?

Answer»

Solution :`E=E^(@)+(0.059)/(n) LOG C`
(or) `E =E^(@)+(0.059)/(2) log [H^(+)]`
`-0.118=0.059 log [H^(+)]` (or)
`-log[H^(+)] =2 , pH=2`.
