Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 11

Some or more factors/species can affect corrosion.
I. Temperature

II. pH

III. Impurity of metal

IV. Conc. HNO3

Select the correct factors/species.

Detailed Solution for Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 11

I. Temperature affects corrosion. However, solubility of dissolved gases decreases with rise in temperature.
II. In acidic medium, pH < 7 (acid rain), enhances corrosion

In basic medium, pH > 7
Fe2+ changes to Fe (OH2) and then to Fe(OH3)(s) (Fe2O3 - rust)
III. Impure metals set up their own electrochemical cells and thus, corrosion is enhanced.
IV. Conc. HNO3 forms an oxide protective layer on the surface of a metal. When metal (as Al) reacts with cone. HNO3, there is reaction but it ceases due to formation of an oxide (Al2O3) layer. Thus, HNO3 can be stored in Al vessel.

Detailed Solution for Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 14



Acid rain causes corrosion of metals. Even Cu, Ag and Pb are corroded.

Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 15

Rusting of iron takes place in

Detailed Solution for Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 15

In the anodic reaction, the metal that is more easily oxidised loses electrons to produce metal ions. In case (a), zinc (more electropositive than Fe) is oxidised. In case (b), iron (more electropositive than Cu is oxidised).
In the cathodic reaction, oxygen gas which is dissolved in a thin film of water on the metal is reduced to OH-.
Thus, rusting of iron does not take place in (a) but it is in (b).
Fe2+ and OH- ions from the half-reactions initiate these further reactions

and E°cell is independent of (OH-).

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 20

For Edison storage battery,

Fe(s) | FeO(s) | KOH(aq) | Ni2O3(s) | Ni(s)
The half-cell reactions are  

Ni2O3 (s) + H2O(l) + 2e-  2NiO(s) + OH- (aq);   E0 = 0.40V

FeO(s) + H2O(l) + 2e- Fe(s) + 2OH-(aq);     E0 = -0.87V

Select the correct statement(s) about the cell.    

Detailed Solution for Test: Battery & Corrosion - Question 20

To make cell reaction spontaneous, E° cell > 0

Thus, battery emf is independent on [OH-]
 ΔG° = - nF E°cell 
= - 2 x 96500x 1.27
= -245100 J 
= -245.1 kJ
Thus, energy obtained per mole of Ni2O3 consumed i s -245.1 kJ.
