Match List I with List II Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
- A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
- A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
- A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
Answer
(3) A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
Solution
A. Leclanche (dry) cell: anode reaction Zn Zn2+ + 2e-, so A is IV
B. Ni–Cd cell: a secondary cell, i.e. rechargeable, so B is III
C. Fuel cell (H2–O2): converts the energy of combustion directly into electrical energy, so C is I
D. Mercury cell: overall reaction Zn(Hg) + HgO(s) ZnO(s) + Hg(l) has no ion in solution (constant voltage) and it is used in hearing aids, so D is II
∴ A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
Answer: (3)
