The correct Answer is:
To find the equilibrium constant for the cell reaction given the standard cell potential \( E_{cell}^{0} = 0.59 \, V \) and the fact that it involves one electron (n = 1), we can use the Nernst equation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the Nernst Equation**: The Nernst equation relates the standard cell potential to the equilibrium constant: \[ E_{cell} = E_{cell}^{0} - \frac{0.059}{n} \log K \] At equilibrium, \( E_{cell} = 0 \), so we can rewrite the equation as: \[ 0 = E_{cell}^{0} - \frac{0.059}{n} \log K \] 2. **Substitute Known Values**: Since \( n = 1 \) (one electron is involved), we can substitute \( E_{cell}^{0} = 0.59 \, V \) and \( n = 1 \) into the equation: \[ 0 = 0.59 - 0.059 \log K \] 3. **Rearrange the Equation**: Rearranging gives: \[ 0.059 \log K = 0.59 \] Now, divide both sides by \( 0.059 \): \[ \log K = \frac{0.59}{0.059} \] 4. **Calculate the Right Side**: Performing the division: \[ \log K = 10 \] 5. **Convert Logarithm to Exponential Form**: To find \( K \), we take the antilogarithm: \[ K = 10^{10} \] ### Final Answer: The equilibrium constant \( K \) for the cell reaction is: \[ K = 10^{10} \]
