Q.

For the cell reaction:

2Fe(aq)3++2I(aq)-2Fe(aq)2++I2(aq)

Ecell=0.24V at 298 K. The standard Gibbs' energy (ΔrG°) of the cell reaction is

[Given that Faraday constant, F = 96500 C mol-1]                       [2019]

1 23.16 kJ mol-1  
2 - 46.32 kJ mol-1  
3 - 23.16 kJ mol-1  
4 46.32 kJ mol-1  

Ans.

(2)

The standard Gibbs' energy, (ΔG°)=-nFEcell

Value of n=2

   ΔG°=-2×96500×0.24=-46320 J

=-46.32 kJ/mol
