Chapter 18, Problem 86E

Refer to the tabulated values of $\Delta G_{\text{f}}^{\text{o}}$ in Appendix IIB to calculate $E_{\text{cell}}^{\text{o}}$ for the fuel-cell breathalyzer, which employs the following reaction. ( $\Delta G_{\text{f}}^{\text{o}}$ for HC₂H₃O₂(g) = –374.2 kJ/mol.)

CH₃CH₂OH(g) + O₂(g) →HC₂H₃O₂(g) + H₂O(g)
