This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Correct Option: (ii)
According to the electrochemical series and standard reduction potential of metal, the higher the negative value of standard reduction potential stronger will be the reducing agent
In the given options, the standard reduction potential of chromium has the highest value so it is the strongest reducing agent.

This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Correct Option: (iii)
(i) Conductivity of solution depends upon the size of ions as more is the size of ion, mobility decreases, and conductivity decreases so this option is incorrect.
(ii) Viscosity is the measure of the resistance of a liquid to flow. Greater will be the viscosity of solvent, less will be the flow of electrons and lesser will be the conductivity. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
(iii) Conductivity depends on the solvation of ions in the solution. Greater is the solvation, lesser will be the conductivity of the solution. Therefore, this option

This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Correct Option: (iii)
On the application of external potential, an increased reaction starts till the opposing voltage becomes 1.1V.
However, further increase in the external potential leads the reaction to start in an opposite direction functioning as an electrolytic cell which is a device that uses electrical energy for carrying out electrochemical reactions.

This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Correct Option: (iv)
(i) Inert electrodes like graphite are a source of electrons in a reaction. It doesn't participate in a chemical reaction. Therefore, this option is incorrect
(ii) Inert electrode chemically doesn't participate in the reaction but it provides a surface either for oxidation and reduction reaction. Therefore, this option is incorrect
(iii) Inert electrodes provide surface for conduction of electrons so this option is incorrect.
(iv) Inert electrodes cease transfer of electrons for oxidation or reduction but not for redox reaction. Therefore

This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Correct Option: (iii)
The difference between electrode potential potentials of two electrodes when no current is drawn through the cell is termed as cell emf. It is the energy provided by a cell per coulomb of charge passing through it. It is the maximum potential difference between the electrodes of a cell.

This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Correct Option: (iii)
(i) The properties which don't depend on the mass of species are termed intensive properties. ECell is an intensive property that doesn't depend on the mass of the species.? rG is an extensive property as it depends on the mass of the species. Therefore, this option is incorrect
(ii) ECell is an intensive property but? rG is an extensive property so this option is incorrect
(iii) The properties which don't depend on the mass of species are termed intensive properties ECell is an intensive property that doesn't depend on the mass of the species

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Acetic acid is a weak electrolyte and the number of ions on dilution increases due to an increase in the degree of dissociation. In the case of strong electrolytes the number of ions remains the same but interionic attraction decreases.
