Using the following reduction half-reactions:
𝐴l3+(π‘Žq) + 3𝑒- β†’
𝐴l(𝑠) πΈΒ°π‘Ÿed = βˆ’1.662
𝐢u2+ + 2𝑒- β†’
𝐢u(𝑠) πΈΒ°π‘Ÿed =
0.342
a. Calculate the Standard Cell Potential for the reaction:
3𝐢u2+(π‘Žq) + 2𝐴l(𝑠) β†’ 3𝐢u(𝑠) +
2𝐴l3+(π‘Žq)
b. Is this an example of a voltaic or electrolytic cell?
c. Calculate the cell potential at 25 Β°C when [Cu2+] = 1.5 M and
[Al3+] = 0.0015 M.
d. Over time, the measured cell potential will slowly decrease.
Please explain why.
