A galvanic (voltaic) cell consists of an inert platinum electrode in a solution containing 1.0 M tin(IV) ion and 1.0 M tin(II) ion, and another inert platinum electrode in a solution containing 1.0 M cobalt(III) ion and 1.0 M cobalt(II) ion, connected by a salt bridge. Calculate the standard potential for this cell at 25°C. Standard reduction potentials can be found in the standard reduction potentials table.

Answer :

In the galvanic or voltaic cell, the standard cell potential is 1.67 V. The standard potential is the difference between the reduction potential of cathode and anode.

What is an electrochemical cell?

An electrochemical cell produces energy by a sponteanous chemical process. A galvanic or voltaic cell produces energy by a sponteanous chemical reaction.

Hence, given the standard reduction potentials;

Sn4+ + 2e- ==> Sn2+  Eº = 0.15 V (anode)

Co3+ + 2e- ==> Co2+  Eº = 1.82 V (cathode)

Eºcell = 1.82 V - 0.15 V = 1.67 V
