Chapter 9, Problem 10E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The efficiency of each of the given energy conversion processes are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The power that arises by utilizing the chemical or physical resources for providing heat and light or carrying out various processes is known as energy. The SI unit of energy is joule.
The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, it can be converted to other forms.

Imagine an electrochemical cell based on these two half reactions with electrolyte concentrations as given below:
Oxidation: Pb(s) → Pb2+(aq, 0.10 M) + 2 e–
Reduction: MnO4–(aq, 1.50 M) + 4 H+(aq, 2.0 M) + 3 e– → MnO2(s) + 2 H2O(l)
Calculate Ecell (assuming temperature is standard 25 °C).

For a silver-silver chloride electrode, the following potentials are observed:
E°cell = 0.222 V and E(saturated KCl) = 0.197 V
Use this information to find the [Cl–] (technically it’s the activity of Cl– that’s relevant here, but we’ll just call it “concentration” for simplicity) in saturated KCl.
