Answer this question asap. this is on a homework assignment that is due you in advance! a voltaic cell employs the following redox reaction: 2fe3+(aq)+3mg(s)→2fe(s)+3mg2+(aq) calculate the cell potential at 25 ∘c under each of the following conditions.
a. find ecell at standard conditions
b. when [fe3+]= 1.0×10−3 m ; [mg2+]= 2.90 m find ecell
c. when [fe3+]=2.90m; [mg2+]=1.0*10^-3 m find e cell

a. E° cell = 3.14 V

b. E cell = 3.11 V

c. E cell = 3.16 V

Cell potential (E °) is the potential difference between the two electrodes in an electrochemical cell.

Electric current moves from a high potential pole to a low potential, so the cell potential is the difference between an electrode that has a high electrode potential (cathode) and an electrode that has a low electrode potential (anode)

or:

(At the cathode the reduction reaction occurs, the anode oxidation reaction occurs)

The value of E cells uses a reference electrode which is used as a comparison called the Standard Electrode which is the hydrogen-platinum electrode

The potential cell for nonstandard conditions we can use the Nernst equation

For standard temperature T = 298 K,

Q = the reaction quotient

In reaction:

2Fe³⁺ (aq) + 3Mg (s) → 2Fe (s) + 3Mg²⁺ (aq)

Given:

Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Mg (s) = –2.37V and

Fe³⁺ + 3e⁻ → Fe (s) = 0.77V

From the value of E cells, it can be seen that the higher E cells will act as cathodes namely Fe³⁺

So the reaction happens

at the anode (oxidation reaction) Mg (s) ------> Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻ E ° = + 2.37V

at the cathode (reduction reaction) Fe³⁺ + 3e− → Fe (s) = 0.77 V

E ° cell = E ° cathode -E ° anode = 0.77 V - (-2.37V) = 3.14V

Mg (s) ------> Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻ E ° = + 2.37V x 3

Fe²⁺ + 3e− → Fe (s) E ° = 0.77 V            x2

============================= +

2Fe³⁺ (aq) + 3Mg (s) → 2Fe (s) + 3Mg²⁺ (aq) E ° cell = 3.14V

From Nerst equation

n = 6 (6 electron transfer)

b. when [Fe³⁺] = 1.0 × 10⁻³ M; [Mg²⁺] = 2.90 M

c. when [Fe³⁺] = 2.90M; [Mg²⁺] = 1.0 * 10⁻³ M

geosphere and hydrosphere.

this is because the geosphere has to do with geological events, while the hydrosphere controls all water on earth.

1. a)c-14 has two more protons

2. d)they have different numbers of protons, neutrons, and valence electrons; they are all gases at room temperature.

3. c) iron and nickel.
