41. Consider a macroscopic electrochemical cell that has operated until it reached true chemical equ — Electrochemistry Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

At chemical equilibrium, the net driving thermodynamic force is zero ($\Delta G = 0$). Since $\Delta G = -nFE_{cell}$, the operating cell potential $E_{cell}$ also strictly equals zero. The standard values ($\Delta G^\circ$ and $E^\circ_{cell}$) remain fixed constants.
