    Reaction literally stop at equilibrium. Hence Ecell is zero.

  • Suman Kumar best-answer

    At equilibrium, there is no potential difference between the electrodes of the cell

    I believe you are talking about E(cell) and E°(cell) of electrochemistry. So Ecell is zero at equilibrium that is when the E(cathode) becomes equal to E(anode). E° cell is zero in the concentration cell when both the electrodes are of the same metal.

    got it??

    Sir when we do questions of electrochemistry ....at equilibrium we take Ecell =0 and and we take the value of Ecell°

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes, E° is an standard value never be zero at equilibrium

    eduncle-logo-app

    E zero because Ecathode and EAnode becomes equal

    yes sir got it thanku
