Question

Calculate E0 and E for the cell Sn|Sn2+(1M)Pb2+(103M)|Pb,E0(Sn2+/Sn)=0.14V,E0(Pb2+/Pb)=0.13V.
Is cell representation is correct?

Open in App
Solution

The cell representation is :-
SnSn2+(1M)Pb2+(103m)Pb
E0cell=EREL
=EPb2+/PbESn2+/Sn
=0.13(0.14)=0.01V
Nearest equation :
Ecell=E00.059nlog⎢ ⎢(Sn2+)(Pb2+)⎥ ⎥
Ecell=0.010.0592log[1103]
Ecell=0.010.0885
Ecell=0.0785V
eqn : Sn+Pb2+Sn2++Pb
n=2e
