Does PH Have an Effect on the Cell Potential (Ecell)

Question 75

Multiple Choice

Does pH have an effect on the cell potential (Ecell) for the following oxidation-reduction reaction? Does pH have an effect on the cell potential (E<sub>cell</sub>)  for the following oxidation-reduction reaction?   A) Yes, because E<sub>cell</sub> values for all redox reactions depend on the pH. B) Yes, because E<sub>cell</sub> values for redox reactions involving the hydronium ion depend on the pH. C) No, because E<sub>cell</sub> values for redox reactions depend only on the major species in the reaction, in this case, Fe<sup>2+</sup>, MnO<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup>, Fe<sup>3+</sup>, and Mn<sup>2+</sup>. D) No, because E<sub>cell</sub> values for redox reactions depend on concentrations and temperatures but not on pH. E) No, because E<sub>cell</sub> values for redox reactions do not depend on the pH.


A) Yes, because Ecell values for all redox reactions depend on the pH.
B) Yes, because Ecell values for redox reactions involving the hydronium ion depend on the pH.
C) No, because Ecell values for redox reactions depend only on the major species in the reaction, in this case, Fe2+, MnO4-, Fe3+, and Mn2+.
D) No, because Ecell values for redox reactions depend on concentrations and temperatures but not on pH.
E) No, because Ecell values for redox reactions do not depend on the pH.
