Consult the table of standard electrode potential and suggest three substances that can oxidize `Fe^(2+)` ions under suitable conditions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Fe^(2+)rarr Fe^(3+)+e^(-),` `E^(c-)``_(o x i d)=-0.77V`
Only those substances can oxidize `Fe^(2+)` to `Fe^(3+)` whiCHM are stonger oxidizing agents than `0.77V` so that the `EMF` of the cell reaction is positive. This is so for elements lying below `Fe^(3+)|Fe^(2+)` in the electroCHMemical series, `e.g., Br_(2), Cl_(2), ` and `F_(2)`

Calculating the emf from standard potentials: A galvanic cell consists of an Al electrode in a 1.0M Al(NO_(3))_(3) solution and an Fe electrode in a 1.0M Fe(NO_(3))_(2) solution. Calculate the standard emf of this electrohemical cell at 25^(@)C . Also write the cell reaction. Strategy: From the table of standard electrode potentials, write the two reduction half reaction and standard electrode potentials for the cell. Change the direction of the half-cell reaction corresponding tol the smaller (or more negative) electrode potential. Multiply the when the half-reactions are added the electrons cancel. The sum of the half-reactions is the cell reaction. Add the electrode potentials to get the cell emf.
