Question
Be sure to answer all parts.
Determine the overall cell reaction and E
cell
(at 25°C) of a Zn electrode in a 1.0 M Zn(NO3)2 solution
and a Pb electrode in a 1.0 M Pb(NO3)2 solution. E° (Zn²*/Zn) = -0.76 V, E° (Pb²*/Pb) = -0.13 V.
What reaction occurs in the cell?
Pb2*(aq) + Zn(s)→ Pb(s) + Zn²*(aq)
Pb2+(aq) + Zn²+(aq) -
→ Pb(s) + Zn(s)
Zn2*(aq) + Pb(s) → Zn(s) + Pb²*(aq)
Zn(s) + 2H*(aq)→ Zn2*(aq) + H2(g)
