Chapter 19.5, Problem 4CP

Which of these would cause an increase in the cell potential of the electrochemical cell in question 19.5.2?

(i)

Adding ${\text{AgNO}}_{\text{3}}$ to the cathode compartment

(ii)

Adding saturated $\text{AgCl}$ solution to the anode compartment

(iii)

Adding $\text{NaCl}$ to the anode compartment

a)

i and iii

b)

ii and iii

c)

iii only

d)

i. ii. and iii

e)

None of these

To answer questions 19.5.5 and 19.5.6, consider the following cell diagram:

$\text{Pb(}s\text{)|Pb}{\left({\text{NO}}_{\text{3}}\right)}_2(060M{\text{)||AgNO}}_{\text{3}}(0.40M\text{)|Ag(}s\text{)}$
