Consider the following cell reaction

2Fes+O2g+4H+aq2Fe2+aq+2H2Ol

Eo=1.67 V

AtFe2+=10-3M,PO2=0.1atm andpH=3, the cell potential at25oCis

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

2Fes+O2g+4H+aq2Fe2+aq+2H2O l

N=4(no. of moles of electrons involved)

From Nernst equation,

Ecell=Ecello-0.0591nlogQ

=1.67-0.05914log   log10-320.1×10-34H+=10-pH

=1.67-0.106=1.57 V
