A galvanic cell consists of the half‑reactions Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Zn(s) (E° = -0.76 V) and Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Cu(s) (E° = +0.34 V). The cell EMF measured at 298 K is 1.10 V and at 318 K is 1.07 V. Assuming the reaction Zn(s) + Cu²⁺ → Zn²⁺ + Cu(s) and that ΔCₚ ≈ 0, determine the standard enthalpy change ΔH° for the cell reaction (in kJ mol⁻¹).

B. -285 kJ\/mol
Correct Answer C. -298 kJ/mol
D. -310 kJ\/mol
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
-298 kJ/mol
