Chapter 6, Problem 6C.3BE

(i)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The Nernst equation for the reaction has to be written.

Concept introduction: The Nernst equation gives the relationship between the standard electrode potential and the electrode potential for a given cell at given concentrations and temperature.  The formula for Nernst equation is,

    Ecell=EcellοRTnFlnQ

Where,

  • n is the number of electrons
  • T is the temperature
  • Q is the reaction quotient
  • F is the Faraday constant.
  • Ecellο is the standard cell potential.
  • E is the cell potential at given conditions.

(ii)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The value of ΔrG for the cell reaction has to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The Gibbs free energy is related to the electrode potential of the cell by the expression,

    ΔrG=nFEcell

Where,

  • n is the number of electrons.
  • F is the Faraday’s constant.
  • Ecell is the standard cell potential.

(iii)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The value of Ecellο has to be calculated.

Concept introduction: To determine the activity coefficient of an ion in a dilute solution of known ionic strength, the Debye-Hückel limiting law is used.  The expression for the Debye-Hückel limiting law is,

    logγ±=A|z+z|I1/2

The value of A is 0.509.

Where,

  • I is the ionic strength.
  • z+ and z are the charges for the cation and anion, respectively.
  • A is the constant.
  • γ± is the mean ionic coefficient.
