We have stressed the relationship between E° values and thermodynamic properties. We can use this relationship to add some missing features to an electrode potential diagram. For example, note that ClO₂(g), which has Cl in the oxidation state +4, is not included in Figure 22-4. Using data from Figure 22-4 and Appendix D, add ClO₂(g) to the electrode potential diagram for acidic solutions, and indicate the E° values that link ClO₂(g) to ClO₃^–(aq) and to HClO₂(aq).
