. Consider the following cell reactions and its standard cell potential: 3 Hg22+(aq) + 2 Cr3+(aq) ⟶⟶2 Cr(s) + 6 Hg2+(aq) E°cell = -1.66 V a) Write the cell notation for the voltaic cell. b) What are the stoichiometric number of moles of electrons delivered from the one electrode compartment to the other? c) Draw a diagram of the voltaic cell. Label the anode and cathode compartments and the sign of each. Label what ions, gases, and solids are in each compartment. Label the electrode in each compartment. In other words, what is conducting electrons in and out of each compartment. Label the direction of electron
Use an inactive electrode when needed.
