MCQ
Given electrode potentials :

$Fe^{3+} + e \to Fe^{2+} ;$                   $E^o = 0.771\, volts$

$I_2 + 2e\to 2I^-;$                               $E^o = 0.536\, volts$

$E^o$ cell for the cell reaction

$2Fe^{3+} + 2I^-\to 2Fe^{2+} + I_2$ is

  • A
    $(2 \times 0.771 -0.536) = 1.006 \,volts$
  • B
    $(0.771 -0.5 \times 0.536) = 0.503 \,volts$
  • $0.771 -0.536 = 0.235\, volts$
  • D
    $0.536 -0.771 = -0.235 \,volts$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0.771 -0.536 = 0.235\, volts$
c
