A Galvanic Cell Is Constructed Using the Two Hypothetical Half-Reactions

question 88

Short Answer

A galvanic cell is constructed using the two hypothetical half-reactions
A + e^- → B E° = +1.50 V and
C + 2e^- → D E° = -0.50 V
a.Calculate the standard potential of this cell,E°_cell .
b.Calculate ΔG° for the cell reaction.(1 faraday = 96,500 C)
