In the electrochemical cell:

ZnZnSO40.01MCuSO41.0 MCu, the emf of this Daniel cell is E1 . When the concentration ZnSO4 is changed to 1.0M and that of CuSO4 changed to 0.01M, the emf changes to E2 . From the following, which one is the relationship between E1 and E2? (Given, RTF=0.059)

The correct answer is: E1>E2
ZnZnSO40.01 MCuSO41.0MCu

E=Ecello2.303RT2Flog[Zn+2][Cu+2]
 E1=Ecello-2.303RT2×F×log0.011

When concentrations are changed

 E2=Ecello-2.303RT2F×log10.01

i.e., E1>E2
