To learn how to use the Nernst equation The standard

To learn how to use the Nernst equation The standard reduction potentials listed in any reference table are only valid at the common reference temperature of 25 C and standard conditions of 1 M for solutions and 1 atm for gases To calculate the cell potential at nonstandard conditions one uses the Nernst equation 2 303 RT nF E E Q where E is the potential in volts E is the standard potential at 25 C in volts R 8 314 J K mol is the gas constant T is the temperature in kelvins n is the number of moles of electrons transferred F 96 500 C male is the Faraday constant and Q is the reaction quotient log10 At the common reference temperture of 298 K substituting each constant into the equation the result is E E 0 0592 V n log10 Q Submit Completed Part D Part E Previous Answers What is the cell potential for the reaction Mg s Fe aq Mg2 aq Fe s at 55 C when Fe 2 90 M and Mg2 0 310 M Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units View Available Hint s HA
