Given information

Calculate E° cell for each balanced redox reaction and determine whether the reaction is spontaneous 

 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

To calculate the for given balanced redox reaction we need to calculate half life reaction i.e. , 

  • = 0, = -1
    • charge changed from 0 to -1
    •  oxidation number decreased → gained electrons → reduced → cathode

 

  • charge changed from -1 to 0
    • = -1,  = 0
  •  oxidation number increased → lost electrons → oxidized → anode
