Halide ions can he deposited at a silver anode, the reaction being Ag(s) + X- AgX(s) +e- Suppose that a cell was formed by immersing a silver anode in an analyte solution that was 0.0250 M Cl-,Br-, and I -ions and connecting the half-cell to a saturated calomel cathode via a salt bridge. (a) Which halide would form first and at what potential? Is the cell galvanic or electrolytic? (b) Could I- and Br- be separated quantitatively?

Consider a concentration cell that has both electrodes made of some metal M. Solution A in one compartment of the cell contains 1.0 M M2+. Solution B in the other cell compartment has a volume of 1.00 L. At the beginning of the experiment 0.0100 mole of M(NO3)2 and 0.0100 mole of Na2SO4 are dissolved in solution B (ignore volume changes), where the reaction M2+(aq)+SO42(aq)MSO4(s) occurs. For this reaction equilibrium is rapidly established, whereupon the cell potential is found to be 0.44 V at 25C. Assume that the process M2++2eM has a standard reduction potential of 0.31 V and that no other redox process occurs in the cell. Calculate the value of Ksp for MSO4(s) at 25C.

The table below lists the cell potentials for the 10 possible galvanic cells assembled from the metals A. B. C. D. and E. and their respective 1.00 M 2+ ions in solution. Using the data in the table, establish a standard reduction potential table similar to Table 17-1 in the text. Assign a reduction potential of 0.00 V to the half-reaction that falls in the middle of the series. You should get two different tables. Explain why, and discuss what you could do to determine which table is correct.
