Question 59

Multiple Choice

Using the following data, determine the standard cell potential E cellE _ { \text { cell} } ^ { \circ } for the electrochemical cell constructed using the following reaction, where zinc is the anode and lead is the cathode. Zn(s) +Pb2+(aq) Zn2+(aq) +Pb(s) \mathrm{Zn}(s) +\mathrm{Pb}^{2+}(a q) \rightarrow \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(a q) +\mathrm{Pb}(s)
 Potential  Half-reaction  Standard Reduction Zn2+(aq) +2eZn(s) 0.763Ph2+(aa) +2ePh(s) 0126\begin{array}{lll}\text { Potential } & \text { Half-reaction } & \text { Standard Reduction } \\& & \\& \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(a q) +2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Zn}(s) & -0.763 \\& \mathrm{Ph}^{2+}(a a) +2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Ph}(s) & -0126\end{array}
