Chapter 18, Problem 35E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of $\Delta G_{\text{rxn}}^{\text{ο}}$ and $E_{\text{cell}}^{\text{ο}}$ of the given values are to be calculated.

Concept introduction:The standard cell potential $\left(E_{\text{cell}}^{\text{ο}}\right)$ of reaction is calculated by the formula,

$E_{\text{cell}}^{\text{ο}}=\frac{0.0592\text{V}}{n}\log K$

The value of $\Delta G_{\text{rxn}}^{\text{ο}}$ for a reaction is calculated by the formula,

$\Delta G_{\text{rxn}}^{\text{ο}}=-n\text{F}{E}_{cell}^{\text{ο}}$

To determine:The value of $\Delta G_{\text{rxn}}^{\text{ο}}$ and $E_{\text{cell}}^{\text{ο}}$ of the given values.
