Question
Consider the following cell:
Pt(s)|H2(g, p1)|H+(aq, pHA)||H+(aq, pHC)|H2(g, p2)|Pt(s)
If the partial pressure of hydrogen gas is the same for both half-cells, what is E for the cell?
a) 0.0296 log(pHA/PhC)
b) 0.0296 log(pHC/PhA)
c) 0.0592 (pHA - pHC)
d) 0.0592 (pHC - pHA)
I know its not A because I got it wrong on my hw....
