Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The relation between ΔG° and E° for a cell reaction is given by the equation ΔG° = -nFE°, where n is the number of moles of electrons transferred in the reaction, F is the Faraday constant, and E° is the standard cell potential. In this reaction, 2 moles of electrons are transferred (from the oxidation of Fe to Fe^2+ and the reduction of Ni^2+ to Ni), so the correct relation is ΔG° = -2FE°.
