Correct Option - 4
Detailed Solution:For concentration cell E? cell = 0
Anode: Cu (s) → Cu²? (aq)?
Cathode: Cu²? (aq)? → Cu (s)
Overall: Cu²? (aq)? → Cu²? (aq)?
As ΔG = −nFEcell
If ΔG = -ve than Ecell is positive
Ecell = E? cell − (0.059/2) log (C? /C? )
Ecell = − (0.059/2) log (C? /C? )
Ecell > 0 ⇒ C? > C?
