\(Mg_{(s)}+Cl_{2(g)} \rightarrow Mg_{(aq)}^{2+}+2 Cl_{(aq)}^-\)કોષમાં થતી પ્રક્રિયા માટે કોષને નીચેમાંથી કઈ રીતે રજૂ કરી શકાય?

A \(Mg / Mg ^{2+}{ }_{( aq )(1 M )} /\left| Cl _{( aq )(1 M )}^{-}\right| Cl _{2(g)(1 bar )} \mid Pt\)
B \(Pt ^{\dagger} Cl ^{-}{ }_{( aq )(1 M )}\left| Cl _{2(g)(1 bar )}\right|\left| Mg ^{2+}{ }_{( aq )(1 M )}\right| Mg\)
C \(Mg | Mg ^{2+}{ }_{( aq )(1 M )} \| Cl _{2(g)(1 bar )}| Cl _{( aq )(1 M )}^{-} \mid Pt\)
D \(Pt \left| Cl _{2(g)( Ibar )}\right| Cl _{( aq )(1 M )}^{-}| | Mg ^{2+}{ }_{( aq )(1 M )} \mid Mg\)

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(Mg | Mg ^{2+}{ }_{( aq )(1 M )} \| Cl _{2(g)(1 bar )}| Cl _{( aq )(1 M )}^{-} \mid Pt\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Mg_{(s)} \text{ is oxidized to } Mg_{(aq)}^{2+} \text{ (Anode)} \implies Mg \left| Mg^{2+}\right|\) \(Cl_{2(g)} \text{ is reduced to } Cl_{(aq)}^- \text{ at Pt electrode (Cathode)} \implies Cl_{2(g)} \left| Cl^{-}\right| Pt\)

Apply the relevant identity from the chapter and substitute the values established in the previous step, keeping the original constraint in view.

Use the simplified expression to isolate the unknown, then plug the result back into the question setup to confirm the working is internally consistent.

Cross-check against a boundary or limiting case. Both the dimensional balance and the qualitative behaviour at the extreme should agree with the candidate answer.

Combine the steps above to identify the correct option. The remaining choices each fail at least one of the consistency, dimensional, or boundary checks.
