To determine if each redox reaction is spontaneous, we need to calculate the cell potential (E° cell) using the standard reduction potentials from Table 1. A reaction is spontaneous if the cell potential is positive.1.
Half-reactions:
(E° = -0.14 V)
(E° = +0.34 V) Cell potential:
Since
is positive, the reaction is spontaneous.2.
Half-reactions:
(E° = -2.37 V)
(E° = -0.13 V) Cell potential:
Since
is positive, the reaction is spontaneous.3.
Half-reactions:
(E° = +1.51 V)
(E° = +0.85 V) Cell potential:
Since
is positive, the reaction is spontaneous.4.
Half-reactions:
(E° = +0.28 V)
(E° = +0.80 V) Cell potential:
Since
is positive, the reaction is spontaneous.For the challenge question, please provide the specific cell reaction and I will calculate the cell potential for you.
