Question 1:
Write the cell notation for the following voltaic cells:
Sn2+/Sn and Mg2+/Mg.Cl2/Cl−and MnO−4/Mn2+.
Answer:
(a)
Mg(s)∣∣Mg2+(aq)∣∣∣∣Sn2+(aq)∣∣Sn(s)
(b)
Pt(s)∣∣Cl−(aq),Cl2(aq)∣∣∣∣MnO−4(aq),Mn2+(aq)∣∣Pt(s)
Question 2:
Calculate the voltage for the following cells:
(a) Ni(s)∣∣Ni2+(aq)∥Pb2+(aq)∣∣Pb(s).
(b) Pt(s)∣∣I−(aq),I2(aq)∥Ag+(aq)∣∣Ag(s).
(c) Pt(s)∣∣Fe2+(aq),Fe3+(aq)∥Ag+(aq)∣∣Ag(s).
(d) Pt(s)∣∣Br−(aq),Br2(aq)∥Cl2(aq),Cl−(aq)∣∣Pt(s).
Jawapan:
(a)
E0cell=(+0.13)−(−0.25)=+0.12 V
(b)
E0cell =(+0.80)−(+0.54)=+0.26 V
(c)
E0cell =(+0.80)−(+0.77)=+0.03 V
(d)
E0cell =(+1.36)−(+1.07)=+0.29 V
