A galvanic cell is constructed with half-cell compartments joined by a salt bridge. One half cell contains copper wire dipped into a 0.50 M aqueous solution of Cu(NO3)2. The other half cell consists of a platinum electrode dipped into a solution containing 0.10 M Fe(NO3)2 and on 0.20 M Fe(NO3)3. Given: Cu²+ (aq) + 2 e → Cu (s) E° = 0.340 V Fe (aq) + e + Fe²+ (aq) E° = 0.770 V a) What is the net reaction that occurs in the cell? b) What is the standard cell potential at 25°C? c) What is the cell potential of the galvanic cell described at 25°C? d) What is the Gibbs Free Energy change for this galvanic cell?
