Question

For the reaction below,determine the standard free energy change,ΔG°. Cu(s)+ Sn²⁺(aq)→ Cu²⁺(aq)+ Sn(s)E°_cell= -0.48 V

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The standard free energy change, ΔG°, can be calculated using the formula ΔG° = -nFE°cell. Here, n = 2 (number of electrons transferred), F = 96485 C/mol (Faraday's constant), and E°cell = -0.48 V. Substituting these values gives ΔG° = -(2)(96485)(-0.48) = 92.6 kJ.
