Please provide a step by step solution and answers for the 3 Voltages answer required. NOTE MY ANSWER ARE INCORRECT, please show me how to correct. thank you.
consider the cell: Cu
nsider the cell: CulCu2 (0.00571 M)lPb2 (0.00603 M)IPb Calculate the half cell reduction potential at 298 K at the cathode. (Refer to your textbook for standard reduction potentials.) Number .6896 Calculate the half cell reduction potential at 298 K at the anode. Number -.345 What is the initial potential needed to provide a current of 0.0660 A, if the resistance of the cell is 4.36 ? (Assume T-298 Number .288Explanation / Answer
Solution:
Given data,
Cu|Cu2+(0.00571 M) ||Pb2+(0.00603 M) | Pb -------------------- (A)
From standard potential table we get,
Pb2+ + 2e- à Pb - 0.13 V (anode)
Cu2+ + 2e- à Cu + 0.34 V (cathode)
The equation to calculate overall cell potential is,
Ecell = (Ecathode – Eanode) + (0.0592 V/n) log Keq --------------------- (1)
The unknowns in the equation (1) are calculated from (A),
Keq = [0.00603]/[0.00571] = 1.05604
Log Keq = log (1.05604) = 0.2368
n = 2 as redox is 2e-
by substituting the above values in equation (1) we get,
Ecell = (0.34 – (-0.13)) +(0.0592/2) (0.02368
Ecell = 0.47 V
From ohm’s law we know V = I*R { I = 0.0660 A and R = 4.36 ohm}
V = 0.0660 * 4.36 = 0.305 V
