The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the standard EMF (Electromotive Force) for the given redox reaction: **Reaction:** \[ \text{Sn}(s) + 2\text{Fe}^{3+}(aq) \rightarrow 2\text{Fe}^{2+}(aq) + \text{Sn}^{2+}(aq) \] **Given Standard Reduction Potentials:** 1. \( E^\circ_{\text{Fe}^{3+}/\text{Fe}^{2+}} = +0.77 \, \text{V} \) 2. \( E^\circ_{\text{Sn}^{2+}/\text{Sn}} = +0.14 \, \text{V} \) ### Step 1: Identify the half-reactions - The oxidation half-reaction involves tin (Sn) being oxidized to tin ions (\( \text{Sn}^{2+} \)): \[ \text{Sn}(s) \rightarrow \text{Sn}^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \] - The reduction half-reaction involves iron ions (\( \text{Fe}^{3+} \)) being reduced to iron ions (\( \text{Fe}^{2+} \)): \[ \text{Fe}^{3+}(aq) + e^- \rightarrow \text{Fe}^{2+}(aq) \] ### Step 2: Write the standard reduction potentials - For the oxidation of Sn: \[ E^\circ_{\text{oxidation}} = -E^\circ_{\text{Sn}^{2+}/\text{Sn}} = -0.14 \, \text{V} \] - For the reduction of Fe: \[ E^\circ_{\text{reduction}} = E^\circ_{\text{Fe}^{3+}/\text{Fe}^{2+}} = +0.77 \, \text{V} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the standard EMF of the cell The overall standard EMF of the cell can be calculated using the formula: \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = E^\circ_{\text{reduction}} + E^\circ_{\text{oxidation}} \] Substituting the values: \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = 0.77 \, \text{V} + (-0.14 \, \text{V}) \] \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = 0.77 \, \text{V} - 0.14 \, \text{V} \] \[ E^\circ_{\text{cell}} = 0.63 \, \text{V} \] ### Final Answer: The EMF for the reaction under standard conditions is: \[ \boxed{0.63 \, \text{V}} \]
