Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCS) have shown some promise as a viable option for providing "green" energy to small electrical devices. Calculate E° for the reaction that takes place in DMFCS: CH3OH(1) + 3/2 O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2 H2O(1) Use the following values. AG°H,O(1) =-237 kJ/mol AG°O,(g) = 0 kJ/mol AG°CO,(g) = -394 kJ/mol AG°CH3OH(1) =-166 kJ/mol. E° = V
