Answer:
The standard cell potential (EĀ°cell) for the voltaic cell based on the reaction below is 0.64 V.
Explanation:
Let's consider the following redox reaction.
SnĀ²āŗ(aq) + 2 FeĀ³āŗ(aq) ā 2 FeĀ²āŗ(aq) + Snā“āŗ(aq)
We can recognize the following half-reactions.
Cathode (reduction): 2 FeĀ³āŗ(aq) + 2 eā» ā 2 FeĀ²āŗ(aq) Ā Ā EĀ°red = 0.77 V
Anode (oxidation): SnĀ²āŗ(aq) ā Snā“āŗ(aq) + 2 eā» Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā EĀ°red = 0.13 V
The standard cell potential (EĀ°cell) is the difference between the standard reduction potential of the cathode and the standard reduction potential of the anode.
EĀ°cell = EĀ°red, cat - EĀ°red, an = 0.77 V - 0.13 V = 0.64 V
