Question: Using data from Table 8.1, write down the spontaneous cell process, and calculate E o cell and G o for the following combinations of half-cells:

Using data from Table 8.1, write down the spontaneous cell process, and calculate Eocell and ΔGo for the following combinations of half-cells:

(a) Ag+ (aq) +e=Ag(s) (b) Br (aq) + 2e = 2Br (aq)


Data from Table 8.1

2+ with Zn+ (aq) + 2e = Zn(s) with Cl(aq) + 2e= 2Cl(aq) (c) [CrO (aq) + 14H+ (aq) + 6e = 2Cr+ (aq) +7HO(1) with Fe+ (aq) + e = Fe+( + (aq)

(a) Ag+ (aq) +e=Ag(s) (b) Br (aq) + 2e = 2Br (aq) 2+ with Zn+ (aq) + 2e = Zn(s) with Cl(aq) + 2e = 2Cl(aq) (c) [CrO (aq) + 14H+ (aq) + 6e = 2 Cr+ (aq) +7HO(1) with Fe+ (aq) + e = Fe+( + (aq) 3+
