- An electrolysis experiment is performed to determine the value of the Faraday constant (number of coulombs per mole of electrons). In this experiment, 28.8 g of gold is plated out from a AuCN solution by running an electrolytic cell for two hours with a current of 2.00 A. What is the experimental value obtained for the Faraday Constant?arrow_forwardGiven this reaction, its standard potential, and the standard half-cell potential of 0.34 V for the Cu2+ |Cu half-cell, calculate E° for the Fe(s)|Fe2+(aq) half-cell.arrow_forwardAt 298 K, the solubility product constant for solid Ba(IO3)2 is 1.5 109.
