A) E° = 4.40 V

B) ΔG° = -8.49 × 10⁵ J

Explanation:

Let's consider the following redox reaction.

2 Li(s) +Cl₂(g) → 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)

We can write the corresponding half-reactions.

Cathode (reduction): Cl₂(g) + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻(aq)      E°red = 1.36 V

Anode (oxidation):  2 Li(s) → 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻         E°red = -3.04

A) Calculate the cell potential of this reaction under standard reaction conditions.

The standard cell potential (E°) is the difference between the reduction potential of the cathode and the reduction potential of the anode.

E° = E°red, cat - E°red, an = 1.36 V - (-3.04 V) 4.40 V

B) Calculate the free energy ΔG° of the reaction.

We can calculate Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) using the following expression.

ΔG° = -n.F.E°

where,

n are the moles of electrons transferred

F is Faraday's constant

ΔG° = - 2 mol × (96468 J/V.mol) × 4.40 V = -8.49 × 10⁵ J

a pan containing water is placed in a positio n where it is exposed to a 10 mile per hour wind. the pan contains a uniform depth of 1.27 cm of water, is quite wide, and has a length of 2.44 m in the wind direction. the water in the pan is at a constant temperature of 15.5 °c.
