Question

Calculate the voltage E, of the cell, in V at 25C
Mn(s)|Mn(OH2)(s)|Mn2+(xM),OH(1.00×104M)|Cu2+(0.675M)Cu(s)
given that Ksp=1.9×1013 for Mn(OH)2(s)E(Mn2+/Mn)=1.18V,E(Cu2+/Cu)=+0.34V (write the value to the nearest integer)

Solution

Eocell=EoCuEoMn=0.34(1.8)=1.52V
Ksp=1.9×1013
[OH]=1×104
Ksp=[Mn2+][OH]2
1.9×1013=c×(104)2
[Mn2+]=x=1.9×105M
Ecell=Eocell0.0592nlogQ
Substitute values in the above expression.
Eocell=1.520.05922log1.863×105=1.66V
