The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of calculating ΔG° for the given electrochemical cell reaction, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values**: - Standard cell potential (E°_cell) = 0.360 V - Faraday's constant (F) = 96500 C/mol - Number of electrons transferred (n) = 2 (since Zn is oxidized from Zn to Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ is reduced to Cd) 2. **Use the Formula for ΔG°**: The relationship between Gibbs free energy change (ΔG°) and cell potential (E°_cell) is given by the formula: \[ ΔG° = -nFE°_{cell} \] 3. **Substitute the Values into the Formula**: Substitute the known values into the formula: \[ ΔG° = -2 \times 96500 \, \text{C/mol} \times 0.360 \, \text{V} \] 4. **Calculate ΔG° in Joules**: Performing the multiplication: \[ ΔG° = -2 \times 96500 \times 0.360 = -69348 \, \text{J} \] 5. **Convert ΔG° from Joules to Kilojoules**: Since the answer is required in kilojoules, convert joules to kilojoules by dividing by 1000: \[ ΔG° = -69348 \, \text{J} \div 1000 = -69.348 \, \text{kJ} \] 6. **Round the Answer**: Rounding to two decimal places, we get: \[ ΔG° \approx -69.35 \, \text{kJ} \] 7. **Final Answer**: The final answer for ΔG° is approximately: \[ ΔG° \approx -69.35 \, \text{kJ} \]
