The standard electrode potentials (reduction) of Pt/Fe3+, Fe+2 and Pt/Sn4+, Sn+2 are +0.77 V and 0.15 V respectively at 25°C. The standard EMF of the reaction Sn4++2Fe2+→Sn2++2Fe3+ is |
0.62 V –0.92 V +0.31 V +0.85 V |
0.62 V |
The correct answer is option 1. 0.62 V To determine the standard EMF of the reaction Sn4++2Fe2+→Sn2++2Fe3+, we can use the standard electrode potentials and the Nernst equation. Given: The standard EMF (E∘) of the reaction can be calculated by subtracting the standard electrode potential of the reactants from the standard electrode potential of the products: E∘=E∘(Pt/Sn4+,Sn2+)−E∘(Pt/Fe3+,Fe2+) E∘=0.15V−(+0.77V) E∘=−0.62V Therefore, the standard EMF of the reaction Sn4++2Fe2+→Sn2++2Fe3+ is (1) −0.62V. |
