Consider the following reaction. mg(s) + 2vo2+ (aq)+ 4 h+(aq) → mg2+(aq) + 2 vo2+(aq) + h2o(l)e⁰cell = 3.37 v. a.calculate the δg⁰∘ for the reaction. express your answer to three significant figures. b. calculate the k for the reaction. express your answer to three significant figures.

Answer :

(a) The value of Gibbs free energy for the reaction is

(b) The value of at 298 is,

Explanation :

The given cell reaction is:

The half reaction will be:

Reaction at anode (oxidation) :

Reaction at cathode (reduction) :

First we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy.

Formula used :

where,

= Gibbs free energy = ?

n = number of electrons = 2    (from the reaction)

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C/mole

= standard e.m.f of cell = 3.37 V

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the Gibbs free energy.

Thus, the value of Gibbs free energy for the reaction is

Now we have to calculate the value of equilibrium constant.

Formula used :

where,

R = universal gas constant = 8.314 J/K/mole

T = temperature =

K = equilibrium constant = ?

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the value of

Therefore, the value of at 298 is,

by cartels in other countries, shipped by air, mail, or land. i cant really see your answer choices : /

it should be all of them because it asks if you included all of those in your answer
