Predict reaction of 1N sulphuric acid wi...

Predict reaction of 1N sulphuric acid with following metals : (i) copper (ii) lead (iii) iron Given, `E_(Cu^(2+)|Cu )^(0)`= 0.34volt , `E_(Pb^(2+)|Pb)^(0)` = -0.13 volt, `E_(Fe^(2+)|Fe)^(0)` = -0.44 volt

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To predict the reaction of 1N sulfuric acid with the given metals (copper, lead, and iron), we will analyze the standard reduction potentials (SRP) of each metal compared to hydrogen ions (H⁺) in the acid. The key concept is that metals with a higher SRP than hydrogen will not react with dilute acids to produce hydrogen gas, while those with a lower SRP will. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Understand the standard reduction potentials.** - The standard reduction potentials for the metals are given as follows: - \( E_{Cu^{2+}/Cu}^0 = 0.34 \, \text{V} \) - \( E_{Pb^{2+}/Pb}^0 = -0.13 \, \text{V} \) ...
