Calculate the standard potential for the following galvanic cell: fe(s) | fe2+(aq) || ag+(aq) | ag(s) which has the overall balanced equation: fe(s)+2ag+(aq)→fe2+(aq)+2ag(s) express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units

The standard potential for this galvanic cell is 1.25 V

Explanation:

Step 1

Oxidation: Fe(s) → Fe^2+ (aq) + 2e-     E° = 0.447 V

Reduction: Ag+(aq) + e- → Ag(s)          E° = 0.7996 V

The electron number for the oxidation is 2; the electron number for the reduction is 1.

By multiplying the reduction reaction by 2, we make the electron number the same between the two half-equations

2 Ag+(aq) + 2e- → 2Ag(s)          E° = 0.7996 V

Step 2: The overall balanced equation

Fe(s) + 2Ag+(aq) → Fe^2+(aq) + 2ag(s)   E° = 0.447 V + 0.7996 V = 1.25V

The standard potential for this galvanic cell is 1.25 V
