Determine the feasibility of the reaction
`2Al_((s))+3Sn_((aq))^(4+)rarr 2Al^(3+)+3Sn_((aq))^(2+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The given reaction consists of the following half reactions
`{:("Anode",:,2Al_((g))rarr2Al^(3+)+6e^(-),),("Cathode",:,3Sn^(4+)+6e^(-)rarr 3Sn^(2+),E^(@)=-1.66V),(,,E_("cell")^(@)=0.15-(-1.66),E^(@)=+0.15V):}`
`=1.81V`
Since `E_("cell")^(@)` is positive, the reaction is feasible.
