The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze the reaction and apply the Nernst equation to determine the relationships between the variables involved. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Reaction The reaction given is: \[ M^{(x+n)} + n e^- \rightarrow M^{(x+)} \] This indicates that the species \( M^{(x+n)} \) is gaining \( n \) electrons to become \( M^{(x+)} \). ### Step 2: Identify the Nernst Equation The Nernst equation relates the cell potential (E) to the concentrations of the reactants and products: \[ E = E^0 - \frac{0.0591}{n} \log \left( \frac{[M^{(x+)}]}{[M^{(x+n)}]} \right) \] Where: - \( E \) is the cell potential, - \( E^0 \) is the standard electrode potential, - \( n \) is the number of electrons transferred, - \([M^{(x+)}]\) is the concentration of the reduced form, - \([M^{(x+n)}]\) is the concentration of the oxidized form. ### Step 3: Analyze the Given Information We are given: - The standard electrode potential \( E^0 \), - Concentrations of \( M^{(x+n)} \) and \( M^{(x+)} \). ### Step 4: Determine Which Variables Can Be Evaluated 1. **Evaluate \( n \)**: Since \( n \) represents the number of electrons transferred in the reaction, and it is a known quantity in the context of the reaction, we can evaluate \( n \) using the Nernst equation. 2. **Evaluate \( x \)**: The value of \( x \) cannot be determined directly from the provided information since it is not related to the concentrations or the standard potential. 3. **Evaluate \( x+n \)**: Similar to \( x \), the value of \( x+n \) cannot be evaluated directly without additional information about \( x \). 4. **Evaluate \( n, x, x+n \)**: Only \( n \) can be evaluated based on the information provided. ### Conclusion From the analysis: - **Option 1**: \( n \) can be evaluated (True). - **Option 2**: \( x \) cannot be evaluated (False). - **Option 3**: \( x+n \) cannot be evaluated (False). - **Option 4**: \( n, x, x+n \) cannot be evaluated together (False). ### Final Answer Only **Option 1** is correct: \( n \) can be evaluated. ---
