Question
a. Calculate Ecell and AG° (in kJ) and determine if the reaction is
spontaneous.
b. Calculate the equilibrium constant, K, at 298 K for the reaction
using AG° = -RT In K.
4 Ag(s) + O2(g) + 4 H*(aq) → 4 Ag*(aq) + 2 H,O(1)
O2(g) + 4 H*(aq) + 4 e
+1.23
2 H2O(1)
-
+1.06
Br2(1) + 2 e
2 Br (aq)
NO, (aq) + 4 H*(aq) + 3 e¯
Ag*(aq) + e -
→ NO(g) + 2 H,O(I)
+0.96
+0.80
Ag(s)
Do the signs/values of AG° and K make sense for this reaction
given the cell potential?
