The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the provided information and apply the relevant equations. ### Step 1: Understand the Cell Reaction The cell reaction is given as: \[ A + 2B^+ \rightarrow A^{2+} + 2B \] This indicates that \( A \) is being oxidized to \( A^{2+} \) and \( B^+ \) is being reduced to \( B \). ### Step 2: Identify the Half-Reactions From the overall cell reaction, we can identify the half-reactions: 1. Oxidation (Anode): \[ A \rightarrow A^{2+} + 2e^- \] 2. Reduction (Cathode): \[ B^+ + e^- \rightarrow B \] ### Step 3: Use the Nernst Equation The standard cell potential \( E^\circ_{cell} \) can be calculated using the equation: \[ E^\circ_{cell} = E^\circ_{cathode} - E^\circ_{anode} \] ### Step 4: Relate \( E^\circ_{cell} \) to Equilibrium Constant \( K \) We are given: \[ \log_{10} K = 15.6 \] Using the relationship between cell potential and equilibrium constant: \[ E^\circ_{cell} = \frac{0.059}{n} \log_{10} K \] where \( n \) is the number of electrons transferred in the balanced equation. Here, \( n = 2 \). ### Step 5: Substitute Values into the Equation Substituting the values into the equation: \[ E^\circ_{cell} = \frac{0.059}{2} \times 15.6 \] ### Step 6: Calculate \( E^\circ_{cell} \) Calculating the above expression: 1. Calculate \( \frac{0.059}{2} = 0.0295 \) 2. Now multiply by \( 15.6 \): \[ E^\circ_{cell} = 0.0295 \times 15.6 = 0.4602 \, V \] ### Step 7: Determine the Standard Reduction Potential for \( B^+ \) We know: \[ E^\circ_{cell} = E^\circ_{B^+/B} - E^\circ_{A^{2+}/A} \] Given \( E^\circ_{A^{2+}/A} = 0.34 \, V \): \[ 0.4602 = E^\circ_{B^+/B} - 0.34 \] Rearranging gives: \[ E^\circ_{B^+/B} = 0.4602 + 0.34 = 0.8002 \, V \] ### Final Answer Thus, the standard reduction potential for \( B^+ + e^- \rightarrow B \) is approximately: \[ E^\circ_{B^+/B} = 0.80 \, V \] ---
