Chapter 19, Problem 12E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Explain whether the large negative and positive electrode potential indicate a strong reducing agent or a strong oxidizing agent.
Concept introduction:
Electrode potential – Potential obtained in the cell from the electrode which acts as a cathode where the hydrogen electrode acts as an anode.
To determine: The relationship between the size of the electrode potential and the oxidizing/reducing agents.

Using reaction free energy to predict equilibrium composition
Consider the following equilibrium:
2NO2 (g) = N2O4(g)
AGº = -5.4 kJ
Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 4.53 atm of dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) at 279. °C. Answer the following questions about this system:
Under these conditions, will the pressure of N2O4 tend to rise or fall?
Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO2?
In other words, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to rise, can that
be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO2? Similarly, if you said the
pressure of N2O4 will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to
'2'
rise by adding NO2?
If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate
the minimum pressure of NO 2 needed to reverse it.
Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
