The reduction...

Question

The reduction of a half cell consisting of a Pt electrodes immersed in 1.5 M ${F e}^{2 +}$ and 0.015 M ${F e}^{3 +}$ .Solution at $25 C (E_{{F e}^{3 +} / {F e}^{2 +}} = 0.770 V)$
(A) 0.652 V (B) 0.88 V (C) 0.710 V (D) 0.850 V

Open in App

Solution

we have,
$F e^{3 +} + e^{-} \to$ $F e^{2 +}$
$E_{c e l l}$ = $E_{c e l l}^{0}$ - 0.0591 log $\frac{F e^{2 +}}{F e^{3 +}}$

$E_{c e l l}$ = 0.770 - 0.0591 log $\frac{1.5}{0.015}$

$E_{c e l l}$ = 0.770 - 0.1182
$E_{c e l l}$ = 0.652
