Question:

In the presence of oxgyen and acid, two half-reactions responsible for the corrosion of iron areFe(s) Fe+ (aq) + 2 e O(g) + 4 H+ (aq) + 4 e  2 HO(l)

Calculate the the standard potential, E°, and decide whether the reaction is product-favored at equilibrium. Will decreasing the pH make the reaction less thermodynamically product-favored at equilibrium?
