Chapter 9: Electro Chemistry — Important Questions & Answers

What is the unit of electrical conductance?
  • A. Ohm
  • B. Siemens
  • C. Volt
  • D. Farad
Answer: B. Siemens
Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance, and its SI unit is Siemens (S).
The Nernst equation is used to calculate:
  • A. Rate of reaction
  • B. Cell emf under non-standard conditions
  • C. Molarity of a solution
  • D. Heat of reaction
Answer: B. Cell emf under non-standard conditions
The Nernst equation relates electrode or cell potential to concentration and temperature under non-standard conditions.
Which statement is correct for a galvanic cell?
  • A. It converts electrical energy into chemical energy
  • B. It converts chemical energy into electrical energy
  • C. It requires an external power source to work
  • D. Oxidation occurs at the cathode
Answer: B. It converts chemical energy into electrical energy
A galvanic cell produces electrical energy from a spontaneous chemical reaction.
A concentration cell is based on the difference in:
  • A. Electrode material
  • B. Pressure of gases
  • C. Concentration of the same species in two half-cells
  • D. Temperature only
Answer: C. Concentration of the same species in two half-cells
In a concentration cell, both electrodes are identical and emf arises due to concentration difference.
In the lead storage battery, during discharge, the active material at both electrodes is converted mainly into:
  • A. Pb and PbO2
  • B. PbSO4
  • C. PbCl2
  • D. PbCO3
Answer: B. PbSO4
During discharge, both the lead anode and lead dioxide cathode are converted into lead sulfate.
