Question

An electrochemical cell is made from iron and copper electrodes
whose standard reduction potential are - 0 44V and +0 34 V
respectively Find cell potential at 298 K if concentration of Cu2+
and Fe2+ are 0 01 and 0 1 mol/l respectively Also find maximum work
obtained from cell

Dear student

Decrease in free energy gives the maximum work done if the free
energy change is negative
-dG = Wmax
dG = -nFE

â€‹ Wmax = 2*96500*0 75
= 144750
