usibility is the correct once...........................................
when Cl2 is dissolved in water it generates ClO which is a good oxidizing agent since it gives out atomic oxygen. but dissolution of F2 cannot generate atomic oxygen since F is more electronegative than O
The balanced chemical equation is:
2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O
We are given the amount of the product produced from the reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculations.
355 g H2O ( 1 mol H2O/ 18.02 g H2O) ( 1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 315.205 g O2
We are given
<span>Ox: Sn(s) → Sn2+ (aq, 1.85 M) + 2e−
Red: ClO2 (g, 0.150 atm ) + e− → ClO−2 (aq, 2.00 M)
We are to compute the cell potential at 25 </span>°C
We simply have to look for the standard potentials for each of the reactions and subtract the redox standard potential from the oxidation standard potential.
From literature and after doing the operation, the answer is
Ecell = 2.2 V
