In the following reaction, the difference between `E^(@)` values of the two redox couples, `Cu|Cu^(2+) and Fe|Fe^(2+)` is positive. Predict the feasibility of the reaction.
`Cu^(2+)(aq)+Fe(s)rarrCu(s)+Fe^(2+)(aq)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As `E_("cathode")^(@)-E_("anode")^(@)=E_(cu^(2+)|Cu)^(@)-E_(Fe^(2+)|Fe)^(@)=+ve`,
hence the reaction will occur.
