Question
Consider a voltaic cell in which the reaction below occurs in two half-cells connected by a salt bridge and an external circuit.
2Cr(s) + 3Sn2+(aq) → 3Sn(s) + 2Cr3+(aq) E˚ = 0.603 V
Which change will cause the voltage to increase?
A.
Increasing the amount of Sn(s) in its half-cell
B.
Increasing the amount of Cr(s) in its half-cell
C.✓ Correct
Diluting the solution in the anode compartment
D.
Diluting the solution in the cathode compartment
