**Title: Understanding Galvanic Cell Potential**Consider these two entries from a fictional table of standard reduction potentials:\[ \text{X}^{3+} + 3 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{X(s)} \quad E^\circ = -1.87 \, \text{V} \]\[ \text{Y}^{3+} + 3 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Y(s)} \quad E^\circ = -0.26 \, \text{V} \]**Question:**What is the standard potential of a galvanic (voltaic) cell where X is the anode and Y is the cathode?\[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = \]**Instructions:**To calculate the standard cell potential (\(E^\circ_{\text{cell}}\)), use the following formula:\[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{cathode}} - E^\circ_{\text{anode}} \]**Solution:**1. Identify the cathode and anode reactions: - Cathode: \( \text{Y}^{3+} + 3 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Y(s)} \) with \( E^\circ = -0.26 \, \text{V} \) - Anode: \( \text{X}^{3+} + 3 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{X(s)} \) with \( E^\circ = -1.87 \, \text{V} \)2. Apply the formula: \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = (-0.26 \, \text{V}) - (-1.87 \, \text{V}) = 1.61 \, \text{V} \]Therefore, the standard potential of the galvanic cell is 1.61 V.\[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = 1.61 \, \text{V} \]
