INTRODUCTION
• This conversion takes place in electrochemical cells which are two types:
I. Galvanic Cells: electricity is produced by means of spontaneous
redox reaction.

Oxidation-Reduction and Half-Reactions
• For the reaction between silver cation and copper metal, two
half-reactions are written.
• One for the oxidation of copper and one for the reduction
of silver.
• Neither half-reaction can occur without the other.

Problem 13.20
• Prob 13.20. Four voltaic cell are set up. In each, one half contains a standard
hydrogen electrode. The second half cell is one of the following:
Cr3+ (aq) | Cr(s) , Fe2+ (aq) | Fe(s) , Cu2+ (aq) | Cu (s) , Mg2+ (aq) | Mg (s)
(a) In which of the voltaic cell does the hydrogen electrode serve as the cathode ?
(b) Which voltaic cell produces the highest voltage? Which produces the lowest ?
(a) For hydrogen to serve as Cathode Eored ( H+| H2) > Eored ( X)
since Eored ( Cr3+ | Cr) , Eored ( Fe2+ | Fe) , Eored ( Mg2+ | Mg) < Eored ( H+| H2)
Hydrogen will be cathode (reduced) and others will be anode (oxidized)
(b) Eocell = Eored + Eoox
Eocell = Eored ( H+| H2) + Eoox ( Mg | Mg2+) = 0.00 + (+2.37) = 2.37 V the highest
Eocell = Eored ( H+| H2) + Eoox ( Cr | Cr2+) = 0.00 + (+0.74) = 0.74 V
Eocell = Eored ( H+| H2) + Eoox ( Fe | Fe3+) = 0.00 + (+0.41) = 0.41 V
Eocell = Eored ( Cu2+| Cu) + Eoox (H2 | H+) = 0.337 + 0.00 = 0.337 V the lowest

Problem 13.24
• Prob 13.24. Consider for the reduction of the following metal ions to the metal:
Sn2+ (aq) , Au+(aq), Zn2+ (aq) , Co2+ (aq) , Ag+(aq), Cu2+ (aq)
Among the metal ions and metals that make up these half reactions:
a. Which metal ion is the weakest oxidizing agent? Eored ( Zn2+ | Zn) = - 0.763 V
b. Which metal ion is the strongest oxidizing agent? Eored ( Co2+ | Co) = - 0.28 V
c. Which metal is the strongest reducing agent? Eored ( Sn2+ | Sn) = - 0.14 V
Eored ( Cu2+ | Cu) = + 0.337V
d. Which metal is the weakest reducing agent?
Eored ( Ag+ | Ag) = + 0.799 V
e. Will Sn(s) reduce Cu2+ (aq) to Cu(s)? Eored ( Au+ | Au) = + 1.68 V
f. Will Ag(s) reduce Co2+ (aq) to Co(s)? --------------------------------------------
g. Which metal ions in the list can be reduced by Sn(s)? --------------------------------------------
h. What metals can be oxidized by Ag+(aq)? Eoox ( Au | Au +) = - 1.68 V
Eoox ( Ag | Ag +) = - 0.799 V
Eoox ( Cu | Cu2+) = - 0.337V
ANSWERS Eoox ( Sn | Sn2+) = + 0.14 V
a. With the lowest Eored value Zn2+ is the weakest oxidizing agent. Eoox ( Co | Co2+) = + 0.28 V
b. With the highest Eored value Au+ is the strongest oxidizing agent. Eoox ( Zn | Zn2+) = + 0.763 V
c. With the highest Eoox value Zn is the strongest reducing agent.
d. With the lowest Eoox value Au is the weakest reducing agent.
e. Yes, since Eored ( Cu2+ | Cu) > Eored ( Sn2+ | Sn) , Sn will reduce Cu2+ to Cu.
f. No, since Eored ( Co2+ | Co) < Eored ( Ag+ | Ag) , Ag will not reduce Co2+ to Co.
h. Except Au (Eored ( Au+ | Au) > Eored ( Ag+ | Ag)) , all other metals; Zn, Co, Sn, Cu will be oxidized by Ag +.

Problem 13.25 & 26
• Prob 13.25. Calculate cell potentials of the following cells:
a. Ga(s) | Ga3+(aq) ║ Ag+(aq) | Ag(s)
Eored ( Ag+ | Ag) = + 0.799 V
Eored ( Ga3+ | Ga) = - 0.53 V
oxidation half-rxn : Ga(s) Ga3+(aq) + 3e- Eoox ( Ga | Ga3+) = + 0.53 V
reduction half-rxn : Ag+(aq) + e- Ag(s) Eored ( Ag+ | Ag) = + 0.799 V
Eocell = Eored + Eoox
= 0.799+ 0.53
Eocell = 1.33 V
