To calculate the standard reduction potential of the half-cell \( S^{2-} | CuS | Cu \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Components We have the half-cell reaction involving copper sulfide (CuS) and the copper ion (Cu²⁺). The solubility product constant \( K_{sp} \) for CuS is given as \( 10^{-35} \) and the standard reduction potential for the copper half-cell \( E^{\circ}_{Cu^{2+}/Cu} \) is given as \( 0.34 \, V \). ### Step 2: Write the Dissociation Reaction The dissociation of copper sulfide can be represented as: \[ ...
