Consider the following cell reaction:

2Fe(s) + O2(g) + 4H+(aq) → 2Fe2+(aq) + 2H2O(l); E° =1.67 V

At [Fe2+] = 10-3

M, p(O2) = 0.1 atm and pH = 3, the cell potential at 25ºC is

(a) 1.47 V

(b) 1.77 V

(c) 1.87 V

(d) 1.57 V

(d) 1.57 V

Explanation:

Here n = 4, and [H+] = 10-3 (as pH = 3)

Applying Nernst equation
