Marine environments are corrosive so you want a model that would help you evaluate how the equipment will perform in such environments. For this you create an electrochemical cell consisting of a half-cell containing 0.015 M solution of Fe2+ ions and another half-cell containing H+ at a concentration of 1.0 x 10-3 M. The cell operates at 38°C, the pressure of hydrogen is kept at 0.04 atm. a) Write the cell diagram and calculate the cell potential under these conditions. b) Determine which reaction occurs at the anode and which occurs at the cathode and also write down the total reaction. (c) Calculate the potential of the electrochemical cell at standard conditions. d) Calculate the potential of the electrochemical cell at the conditions given above.
