textΔG text= - textnFE textcell If textE textcell is +ve, then textΔG will be -ve showing that cell reaction is spontaneous.

Q. Which statement is true in regard to a spontaneous redox reaction?

$E_{red}$ is always negative

$E_{cell}$ is always positive

$E_{o x}$ is always positive

$E_{re d}$ is always positive

$ΔG = - nFE_{cell}$

If $E_{cell}$ is +ve, then $ΔG$ will be -ve showing that cell reaction is spontaneous.

Q. Which statement is true in regard to a spontaneous redox reaction?

Ered​ is always negative

Ecell​ is always positive

Eox​ is always positive

Ered​ is always positive

ΔG =−nFEcell​ If Ecell​ is +ve, then ΔG will be -ve showing that cell reaction is spontaneous.
