The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the standard electrode potential (E°) for the half-reaction of SbO2⁻ to Sb using the given information about the cell and the standard electrode potential for the indium half-reaction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Cell Representation**: The cell is represented as: \[ \text{In(s)} | \text{In(OH)}_3(aq) || \text{SbO}_2^{-}(aq) | \text{Sb(s)} \] Here, In is oxidized at the anode and SbO2⁻ is reduced at the cathode. 2. **Identify the Half-Reactions**: - At the anode (oxidation): \[ \text{In(s)} \rightarrow \text{In(OH)}_3(aq) + 3e^- \] - At the cathode (reduction): \[ \text{SbO}_2^{-}(aq) + 3e^- \rightarrow \text{Sb(s)} \] 3. **Use the Given Standard Electrode Potentials**: - The standard cell potential (E°cell) is given as +0.34 V. - The standard electrode potential for the indium half-reaction (E°anode) is given as -1.0 V. 4. **Apply the Formula for Cell Potential**: The relationship between the cell potential and the half-cell potentials is given by: \[ E°_{\text{cell}} = E°_{\text{cathode}} - E°_{\text{anode}} \] Here, we need to find \(E°_{\text{cathode}}\) (which is the potential for the SbO2⁻ to Sb half-reaction). 5. **Substitute the Known Values**: \[ 0.34 \, \text{V} = E°_{\text{cathode}} - (-1.0 \, \text{V}) \] This simplifies to: \[ 0.34 \, \text{V} = E°_{\text{cathode}} + 1.0 \, \text{V} \] 6. **Rearrange to Solve for E°cathode**: \[ E°_{\text{cathode}} = 0.34 \, \text{V} - 1.0 \, \text{V} \] \[ E°_{\text{cathode}} = -0.66 \, \text{V} \] 7. **Final Result**: The standard electrode potential for the half-reaction of SbO2⁻ to Sb is: \[ E° = -0.66 \, \text{V} \] ### Summary: The calculated standard electrode potential for the half-reaction \( \text{SbO}_2^{-} \rightarrow \text{Sb} \) is **-0.66 V**.
