Solution
Pb** + 2e- → Pb2+
+1.80
Au* + 3e" - Au
3+
+1.50
Fe+
+0.771
+ 3e → Fe
I2 + 2e → 21-

Al* + 3e → Al
Mg* + 2e → Mg
+0.535
-0.124
-1.66
-2.37
K* + e → K
-2.93
a. -2.25 V, Pb is the cathode
b. +2.25 V, Mg is the cathode
c. -2.25 V, Mg is the cathode
d. +2.25 V, Pb is the cathode
e. -2.49 V, Mg is the cathode
