    Oxidation potential for the following half-cell reactions are:
    \[ZnZ{{n}^{2+}}_{(aq)}+2{{e}^{-}}\]    \[{{E}^{o}}=+0.76\,V\]
    \[FeF{{e}^{2+}}_{(aq)}+2{{e}^{-}}\]     \[{{E}^{o}}=+0.44\,V\]
    The emf for the cell reaction
    \[F{{e}^{2+}}+ZnZ{{n}^{2+}}+Fe\]will be

    A)  \[-1.20\,V\]           

    B)  \[0.32\,V\]

    C)  \[-0.32\,V\]          

    D)  \[-1.2\,V\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[Z{{n}_{(s)}}Z{{n}^{2+}}_{(aq)}+2{{e}^{-}},\]\[{{E}^{o}}=0.76\,V\] (Anode) \[F{{e}_{(s)}}F{{e}^{2+}}_{(aq)}+2{{e}^{-}},\] \[{{E}^{o}}=+0.44\,V\]  (Cathode) \[{{E}^{o}}_{cell}={{E}^{o}}_{anode}-{{E}^{o}}_{cathode}\] (In oxidised electrode potential) \[=0.76-0.44=0.32\text{ }V\]
