Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 16E
In some applications nickel-cadmium batteries have been replaced by nickel-zinc batteries. The overall cell reaction for this relatively new battery is:
2 H2 O(I) + 2 NiO(OH) (s) + Zn (s) → 2 Ni (OH)2 (s) + Zn (OH)2 (s)
- What is the cathode half-reaction?
- What is the anode half-reaction?
- A single nickel-cadmium cell has a voltage of 1.30 V. Based on the difference in the standard reduction potentials of Cd2 + and Zn2+ what voltage would you estimate a nickel-zinc battery will produce?
- Would you expect the specific energy density of a nickel-Zinc battery to be higher or lower than that of a nickel-cadmium battery?
