Question:
1. A voltaic cell employs the following redox reaction:
PbO2 (s) + NO (g) → Pb2+ (aq) + NO3− (aq)
a) Balance the above reaction in acidic solution.
b) Draw a diagram of the voltaic cell. Label the PbO2, NO, Pb2+, and NO3−. Indicate the direction of electron flow and the direction of anion and cation flow from the salt bridge.
c) The PbO2/ Pb2+ half-reaction has a standard reduction potential (E°) of 1.46 V and the NO3-/ NO half-reaction has a standard reduction potential (E°) of 0.96 V. Calculate the potential of the cell at 25 °C under the following conditions:
PNO | 0.950 atm |
[Pb2+] | 0.0500 M |
[NO3−] | 0.0620 M |
pH | 4.67 |
