Asked by admin @ in Chemistry viewed by 300 People


The cell in which the following reaction occurs:

2Fe 3+ (aq) + 21" (aq) →2Fe2+ (aq) +1, (s) has E = 0.236 V at 298 K.Calculate the standard Gibbs energy and the equilibrium constant of thecell reaction.​

Answered by admin @



Given :

E° of the cell = 0.236 V

Temperature (T) = 298 K

To Find :

Standard Gibbs energy

Equilibrium constant of the reaction

Solution :

  • The cell reaction is

             2Fe^{3+}(aq)+2I^-(aq)\rightarrow 2Fe^{2+}(aq)+I_{2}(s)

  • The standard Gibbs energy for the reaction

             \Delta G_{0}=-nFE^{0}_{cell}

             \Delta G_{0}=-2\times0.236 \times96487

             \Delta G_{0}= -45.54 kJ/mol

The  Gibb’s energy for the reaction is -45.54 kJ/mol.

  • We know the relation

              logK_{c}=\frac{nFE^{0}_{cell)}}{2.303RT}

              logK_{c}=\frac{2\times96487 \times0.326}{2.303 \times8.31 \times298}

              logK_{c}=7.9854

              K_{c}=9.62\times10^{7}

The equilibrium constant for the reaction is 9.62×10⁷.
