The Edegree_cell for the following equation. Use these standard potentials Pb(s) + F_2(g)rightarrow Pb^2+(aq) + 2F^- (aq)

Solution

let me right th ereduction potential

Pb2+ (aq) + 2e- ---> Pb (s)    E0 = -0.126 V

F2 (g) ----> 2F- (aq) + 2e-   E0 = 2.87 V

reduction potential with highest value undergo reduction

so act as a cathode F2 is cathode

reduction potential with lowest value undergo oxidation

so act as a catode

Pb act as anode

E0 of cell = E0 of cathode - E0 of anode

E0 cell = 2.87 V - (-0.126 V)

E0 cell = 2.996 V
