Given the following reactions and standard electrode potentials:
1. 2Cu⁺ → Cu²⁺ + Cu
2. 2e⁻ + Cu²⁺ → Cu; E°₁ = 0.34V
3. E°₂ = 0.15V
For the reaction Cu⁺ + e⁻ → Cu²⁺, calculate E°₃ using the relationship ΔG° = -n × E°F. If E°₃ = 0.53 - 0.15, what is the value of E°₃?
- E°₁ = 0.34V
- E°₂ = 0.15V
- E°₃ = 0.38V
- ΔG°₁ = -n × 0.15F
Correct answer: E°₃ = 0.38V
Solution
The question involves calculating the standard electrode potential (E°₃) for the reaction Cu⁺ + e⁻ → Cu²⁺. Using the given data and the relationship between Gibbs free energy and electrode potential, E°₃ is correctly calculated as 0.38V.
