Option 4. ratio of electrons to protons

Isotope that has atomic number of 82 is stable. An element that has an atomic number ∠82 more stable except Tc and Pm. Also there is the concept that isotopes consisting a combination of even-even,even-odd,odd-even, and odd-odd are all stable. Many isotopes with no magic numbers of nucleons are stable

In thermodynamics, we determine the spontaneity of a reaction by the sign of ΔG. In electrochemistry, spontaneity is determined
faltersainse [42]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For A:</u> The standard cell potential of the reaction is 4.4 V

<u>For B:</u> The standard Gibbs free energy of the reaction is -8.50\times 10^5J

<u>For C:</u> The reaction is spontaneous as written.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For A:</u>

The given chemical reaction follows:

2Li(s)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2Li^+(aq.)+2Cl^-(aq.)

The given half reaction follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  Li(s)\rightarrow Li^+(aq.)+e^-;E^o_{Li^+/Li}=-3.04V ( × 2)

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  Cl_2(g)+2e^-\rightarrow 2Cl^-(aq.);E^o_{Cl_2/2Cl^-}=+1.36V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

Here, chlorine will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o_{cell}=1.36-(-3.04)=4.4V

Hence, the standard cell potential of the reaction is 4.4 V

  • <u>For B:</u>

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}

where,

n = number of electrons transferred = 2mol\text{ e}^-

F = Faradays constant = 96500J/V.mol\text{ e}^-

E^o_{cell} = standard cell potential = 4.4 V

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta G^o=-2\times 96500\times 4.4=-849200J=-8.50\times 10^5J

Hence, the standard Gibbs free energy of the reaction is -8.50\times 10^5J

  • <u>For C:</u>

For a reaction to be spontaneous, the standard Gibbs free energy change of the reaction must be negative.

From above, the standard Gibbs free energy change of the reaction is coming out to be negative.

Hence, the reaction is spontaneous as written.
