For a general redox reaction
Anode 
Cathode 
Which of the following statement is incorrect?
A
The overall reaction can be written as 
B
The electrons do not appear in the overall reaction because electrons produced at the anode are consumed at the cathode.
C
Here 
is the number of electrons transferred in redox reaction.
is the number of electrons transferred in redox reaction. D
If the reaction is carried out reversibly, the electrical work done is equal to the ratio of charge and potential difference through which charge is moved.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Anode : 
Cathode : 
Overall reaction :
The electrons does not appear in overall reaction
Slope 
Straight line passing through origin.
