Question

Given that E

Answer 1

The equilibrium constant of the reaction is 1.21 * 10^6 while the change in free energy is -34.7 kJ.

What is equilirium constant?

The equilibrium constant shows the extent of conversion of reactants to products.

Now we know from the Nernst equation that;

Ecell = E°cell - 0.0592/n logQ

E°cell = 0.52−0.16=0.36 V

Since Ecell = 0 V at equilibrium,

0 = 0.36 - 0.0592/1 log K

0.36  = 0.0592/1 log K

log K = 0.36/ 0.0592

K = antiog (0.36/ 0.0592)

K = 1.21 * 10^6

ΔG = -RT lnK

ΔG =-(8.314 * 298 * ln1.21 * 10^6)

ΔG =-34.7 kJ
