Answer :
(a) Reaction at anode (oxidation) :
(b) Reaction at cathode (reduction) :
(c)
(d) Yes, we have have enough information to calculate the cell voltage under standard conditions.
Explanation :
The half reaction will be:
Reaction at anode (oxidation) :
Reaction at cathode (reduction) :
To balance the electrons we are multiplying oxidation reaction by 4 and then adding both the reaction, we get:
Part (a):
Reaction at anode (oxidation) :
Part (b):
Reaction at cathode (reduction) :
Part (c):
The balanced cell reaction will be,
Part (d):
Now we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.
For a reaction to be spontaneous, the standard electrode potential must be positive.
So, we have have enough information to calculate the cell voltage under standard conditions.
