Explanation:
The half-cell reduction potentials are
Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ ⇌ Ag(s) E° = 0.7996 V
Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇌ Fe(s) E° = -0.447 V
To create a spontaneous voltaic cell, we reverse the half-reaction with the more negative half-cell potential.
The anode is the electrode at which oxidation occurs.
The equation for the oxidation half-reaction is
Answer:
a. A reaction in which the entropy of the system increases can be spontaneous only if it is endothermic.
Explanation:
The change in free energy (ΔG) that is, the <u>energy available to do work</u>, of a system for a constant-temperature process is:
- When ΔG < 0 the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.
- When ΔG > 0 the reaction is nonspontaneous. The reaction is
spontaneous in the opposite direction.
- When ΔG = 0 the system is at equilibrium.
If <u>both ΔH and ΔS are positive</u>, then ΔG will be negative only when the TΔS term is greater in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is large.
