A galvanic cell is constructed as follows: Zn(s) | Zn²⁺(0.010 M) || Cu²⁺(0.050 M) | Cu(s) at 25 °C. Standard reduction potentials are \(E^{\circ}(\text{Zn}^{2+}/\text{Zn}) = -0.76\ \text{V}\) and \(E^{\circ}(\text{Cu}^{2+}/\text{Cu}) = +0.34\ \text{V}\).\n(a) Calculate the cell EMF using the Nernst equation.\n(b) State which electrode is the anode and which is the cathode.\n(c) If a total charge of 0.500 C passes through the cell, how many grams of copper are deposited on the copper electrode?

Answer Options

A. EMF = 0.98 V; Zn anode, Cu cathode; Cu deposited = 1.80×10⁻⁴ g
B. EMF = 1.20 V; Zn anode, Cu cathode; Cu deposited = 1.55×10⁻⁴ g
C. EMF = 1.05 V; Zn anode, Cu cathode; Cu deposited = 1.70×10⁻⁴ g
Correct Answer D. EMF = 1.12 V; Zn anode, Cu cathode; Cu deposited = 1.65×10⁻⁴ g
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
EMF = 1.12 V; Zn anode, Cu cathode; Cu deposited = 1.65×10⁻⁴ g
