Calculate the standard cell potential (E∘) for the reaction X(s)+Y+(aq)→X+(aq)+Y(s) if K = 5.59×10−3.

E° = -0.133 V

Explanation:

In the reaction:

X(s) + Y⁺(aq) → X⁺(aq) + Y(s)

1 electron is transferred from X to Y

Now, using Nernst equation:

E° = RT / nF ln K

Where R is gas constant (8.314 J/molK), T is absolute temperature (Usually 298.15K), n are transferred electrons (1, for the reaction), F is faraday constant (96485C/mol) and K is equilibrium constant (5.59x10⁻³)

Replacing:

E° = 8.314 J/molK*298.15K / 96485C/mol*1 ln 5.59x10⁻³

E° = -0.133 V

convalent bond :

is a chemical bond formed by the sharing of electron between 2 atoms.

it is the direct chemical bond between 2 atoms.

in bond formation atoms are involved here.

electrovalent bond:

is a chemical bond defined as electroststic attraction between 2 atoms.

it is the electrostatic attraction between 2 atoms.

in bond formation, ions are involved here.

hope it
