Halide ions can he deposited at a silver anode, the reaction being Ag(s) + X- AgX(s) +e- Suppose that a cell was formed by immersing a silver anode in an analyte solution that was 0.0250 M Cl-,Br-, and I -ions and connecting the half-cell to a saturated calomel cathode via a salt bridge. (a) Which halide would form first and at what potential? Is the cell galvanic or electrolytic? (b) Could I- and Br- be separated quantitatively? (Take 1.00 l0-5 M as the criterion for quantitative removal of an ion.) If a separation is feasible, what range of cell potential could he used? (c) Repeat part (b) for I- and Cl-. (d) Repeat part (b) for Br- and Cl-.
Is it reasonable to conclude that a potential could be assigned to each half-cell in a voltaic cell, based on these data for three voltaic cells? Explain.
