Chapter 14, Problem 14.11P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Line notation for indicated cell has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Cell that is more negatively charge has better oxidation tendency and thus will readily lose electron. Electrons released from this electrode will reach the positive reduction potential electrode. For a general representation, the oxidation half cell is drawn in left separated by double vertical parallel lines while reduction half cell comes at right.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Cell potential for each half reaction has to be found and net cell voltage has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Cell-diagram has to be drawn. Also, electrode that acts as anode when salt bridge is incorporated has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Spontaneous net cell reaction has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (d).
