Calculate E ° for the half‑reaction, AgCl ( s ) + e − − ⇀ ↽ − Ag ( s ) + Cl − ( aq ) given that the solubility product constant

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The value of $E^{o}$ for the half-cell reaction is 0.222 V.

Explanation:

Equation for solubility equilibrium is as follows.

$AgCl(s) \rightleftharpoons Ag^{+}(aq) + Cl^{-}(aq)$

Its solubility product will be as follows.

$K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]$

Cell reaction for this equation is as follows.

$Ag(s)| AgCl(s)|Cl^{-}(0.1 M)|| Ag^{+}(1.0 M)| Ag(s)$

Reduction half-reaction: $Ag^{+} + 1e^{-} \rightarrow Ag(s)$ , $E^{o}_{Ag^{+}/Ag} = 0.799 V$

Oxidation half-reaction: $Ag(s) + Cl^{-}(aq) \rightarrow AgCl(s) + 1e^{-}$ , $E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$ = ?

Cell reaction: $Ag^{+}(aq) + Cl^{-}(aq) \rightarrow AgCl(s)$

So, for this cell reaction the number of moles of electrons transferred are n = 1.

Solubility product, $K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]$

= $1.77 \times 10^{-10}$

Therefore, according to the Nernst equation

$E_{cell} = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{0.0592 V}{n} log \frac{[AgCl]}{[Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]}$

At equilibrium, $E_{cell}$ = 0.00 V

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$E_{cell} = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{0.0592 V}{n} log \frac{[AgCl]}{[Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]}$

$0.00 = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{0.0592 V}{1} log \frac{1}{[Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]}$

$E^{o}_{cell} = \frac{0.0592}{1} log \frac{1}{K_{sp}}$

= $0.0591 V \times log \frac{1}{1.77 \times 10^{-10}}$

= 0.577 V

Hence, we will calculate the standard cell potential as follows.

$E^{o}_{cell} = E^{o}_{cathode} - E^{o}_{anode}$

$0.577 V = E^{o}_{Ag^{+}/Ag} - E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$

$0.577 V = 0.799 V - E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$

$E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$ = 0.222 V

Thus, we can conclude that value of $E^{o}$ for the half-cell reaction is 0.222 V.

Naddika [18.5K]

<span>The flowers undergo photosynthesis so it is expected to release O2. When you zip the flower in a plastic bag and placed it in the refrigerator, the plastic bag will shrink in size. The extra air plus the O2 in the back forms gaseous water. This gaseous water will slowly liquefy and when placed in the fridge, it will condense to form water solids.</span>
