Paragraph for Questions 2 to 3
The concentration of potassium ions inside a biological cell is at least twenty times higher than the outside. The resulting potential difference across the cell is important in several processes such as transmission of nerve impulses and maintaining the ion balance. A simple model for such a concentration cell involving a metal M is :
$\mathrm{M}(\mathrm{s}) | \mathrm{M}^{+}\left(\mathrm{aq} ; 0.05 \text { molar) } \| \mathrm{M}^{+}(\mathrm{aq} ; 1 \mathrm{molar}) | \mathrm{M}(\mathrm{s})\right.$
For the above electrolytic cell the magnitude of the cell potential $\left|\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{cell}}\right|$ = 70 mV.
Paragraph for Question 6 and 7
The electrochemical cell shown below is a concentration cell.
$\mathrm{M} | \mathrm{M}^{2+}$ (saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt,
$\mathrm{MX}_{2}$) | | $\mathbf{M}^{2+}$ (0.001 mol $\mathrm{dm}^{-3}$) | M
The emf of the cell depends on the difference in concentrations of M2+ ions at the two electrodes. The emf of the cell at 298 K is 0.059V.
