E°Cell for some half cell reactions
E°Cell for some half cell reactions are given below. Based on these mark
the correct answer.
(a) H+(aq) + e– →1/2H2(g) ; E°cell = 0.00V
(b) 2H2O (l) → O2 (g) + 4H+(aq) + 4e–: E°cell = 1.23V
(c) 2SO42– (aq) → S2O82– (aq) + 2e– ; E°cell = 1.96V
(i) In dilute sulphuric acid solution, hydrogen will be reduced at the cathode.
(ii) In concentrated sulphuric acid solution, water will be oxidised at the anode.
(iii) In dilute sulphuric acid solution, water will be oxidised at the anode.
(iv) In dilute sulphuric acid solution, SO42– ion will be oxidised to tetrathionate ion at the anode.
Option (i) and (iii) are the answer

Is NCERT enough for Class 11 Maths board exams?
Yes, NCERT is sufficient for CBSE Class 11 board exams. CBSE sets question papers directly from NCERT exercises and examples. Solving all exercises thoroughly — including miscellaneous exercises — and understanding the theory in each chapter is enough to score above 90% in boards. For JEE Main, NCERT forms the base but additional practice with higher-difficulty problems is recommended.
