Question
Use the Nernst equation to calculate the cell potential at 298K.
Cu(s) + PtCl ² (aq) (0.10M) → Cu²+ (aq) (0.20 M) + PtCl 4² (aq) (0.10M) + 2Cl(aq) (0.40M)
• Ered Cu²+ (aq)/Cu(s) = +0.34 V
• Eºred PtCl 6² (aq)/ PtCl4²(aq) + 2Cl¯
Oxidation: Cu(s)→→ Cu²+
(aq) + 2 e
2-
Reduction: PtCl6² (aq) + 2 e → PtCl 4² (aq) + 2Cl(a
(aq)
√(aq) = ₁
= +0.68 V
Ex = -0.34 V
Eº
= +0.68 V
