FeO42-+2.2 VFe3++0.70 VFe2+-0.45 VFe0

EFeO42-/Fe2+θ is x×10-3 V. The value of x is _______

Answer:
1825
Solution:

The relation between Go and Ecello is 

Go=-nFEcello

FeO42-+2.2 VFe3+ ΔG1o=-6.6 F(3 electrons are involved)

Fe3++0.70 VFe2+ΔG2o=-0.7 F(one electron is involved)

Hence, for

FeO42-Fe2+ΔG3o=-7.3 F

=-nFEcello(Four electrons are involved)

EFeO42-/Fe+20=-7.3 F-4 F=1.825, n=4

=1825×10-3 V

n= Electron exchange of that half cell reaction.
