Hedef

Farklı konsantrasyonlardaki bakır yarı hücrelerini kullanarak bir konsantrasyon hücresi kurmak ve hücre potansiyeli için Nernst denkleminin öngörüsünü doğrulamak.

Arka Plan

A concentration cell generates voltage from the difference in concentration between two otherwise identical half-cells. According to the Nernst equation, the EMF depends on the logarithm of the concentration ratio. This experiment demonstrates that even without different metals, a potential difference arises from entropy-driven mixing.

3

Pour the dilute (0.01M) CuSO₄ into one beaker and the concentrated (1.0M) into the other.

2 dak
4

Place one copper strip in each beaker. Connect with the salt bridge.

5

Connect the voltmeter. The dilute side is the anode (negative terminal). Measure the EMF.

6

Calculate the predicted EMF using the Nernst equation: E = (RT/nF) ln(C_high/C_low) = (0.0257/2) ln(100) = 0.059 V at 25°C.

Beklenen Sonuçlar

The cell should produce approximately 0.05-0.06 V. The Nernst equation predicts E = (0.02569 V / 2) x ln(1.0/0.01) = 0.059 V at 25°C. Measured values may be slightly lower due to junction potentials.

Temizlik

Dispose of copper sulfate waste in designated containers. Rinse and store copper strips. Clean salt bridge.
