Concentration Cells Note the electrodes.
Concentration Cells – Ksp 1.0M NaCl and 1.0M Ag+(aq) excess AgCl(s)
Clicker Question a) 0.54 V b) 0.83 V c) 0.97 V d) 1.23 V e) 1.52 V Ni 0.0010 M Ni2+ 1.0 M HCl Ag AgCl(s) 1.0 M HCl Determine Ɛ for this cell. Ksp for AgCl = 1.6 x 10–10 Ni2+ + 2e– Ni –0.23 V Ag+ + e– Ag 0.80 V a) 0.54 V b) 0.83 V c) 0.97 V d) 1.23 V e) 1.52 V
Batteries
Corrosion 0.44 V 0.40 V Blue from KFe[Fe(CN)6]•H2O Pink from OH– and phenolphthalein
Prevention of Corrosion Find a metal more reactive than Fe (a “sacrificial metal”). Fe Fe2+ + 2e– (0.44 V) Mg Mg2+ + 2e– (2.37 V) Zn Zn2+ + 2e– (0.76 V)
Galvanic vs. Electrolytic Naturally occurs to reduce Cu2+ and oxidize Zn. But what if we want to form Zn? Zn2+ + 2e– Zn (–0.76 V) Cu2+ + 2e– Cu (0.34 V)
Electroplating Get silver metal from dissolved silver ions. To reduce silver ions, an oxidation must occur. Ag+ + e– Ag (0.80 V)
