Although the hydrogen electrode may be conceptually the simplest electrode and is the basis for the choice of reference potential in electrochemical systems, it is cumbersome to use. Therefore, several substitutes for it have been devised. One of these alternatives is the quinhydrone electrode (quinhydrone, Q ⋅ QH2, is a complex of quinone, C6H4O2 = Q, and hydroquinone, C6H4O2H2 = QH2), where the concentrations of Q ⋅ QH2 and QH2 are equal to each other. The electrode half-reaction is Q(aq) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 e− → QH2(aq), E⦵ = +0.6994 V. If the cell Hg(s)|Hg2Cl2(s)|HCl(aq)|Q ⋅ QH2|Au(s) is prepared, and the measured cell potential is +0.190 V, what is the pH of the HCl solution?
Assume that in a certain cell, the ratio of products/reactants or Keq = 747.1 (Keq is dimensionless) for the reaction Glucose + ATP <> Glucose-6-P + ADP, at a particular instant, the concentrations of each compound were Glucose =2.0M, ATP =7.7M, ADP =10.2M and G-6-P =21.5M. Calculate the difference (dimensionless) between Keq and the ratio of products/ractants at this instance, in this cell, to five significant figures.
