Electrolysis of 600 mL aqueous solution of NaCl for 5 min changes the pH of the solution to 12. The current in Amperes used for the given electrolysis is ….. (Nearest integer).
If \( E^\circ_{Fe^{2+}/Fe} = -0.441 \, \text{V} \) and \( E^\circ_{Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}} = 0.771 \, \text{V} \),
the standard emf of the cell reaction \( Fe(s) + 2Fe^{3+}(aq) \rightarrow 3Fe^{2+}(aq) \) is:
\[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{cathode}} - E^\circ_{\text{anode}} \] For the reaction, \( Fe^{3+} \) is reduced to \( Fe^{2+} \) (reduction at the cathode), and \( Fe \) is oxidized to \( Fe^{2+} \) (oxidation at the anode). So: \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}} - E^\circ_{Fe^{2+}/Fe} \] \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = 0.771 \, \text{V} - (-0.441 \, \text{V}) = 0.771 + 0.441 = 1.212 \, \text{V} \] Hence, the standard emf of the cell reaction is \( 1.212 \, \text{V} \).

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
A square loop of sides \( a = 1 \, {m} \) is held normally in front of a point charge \( q = 1 \, {C} \). The flux of the electric field through the shaded region is \( \frac{5}{p} \times \frac{1}{\varepsilon_0} \, {Nm}^2/{C} \), where the value of \( p \) is:
An electrochemical cell is a device that is used to create electrical energy through the chemical reactions which are involved in it. The electrical energy supplied to electrochemical cells is used to smooth the chemical reactions. In the electrochemical cell, the involved devices have the ability to convert the chemical energy to electrical energy or vice-versa.
