3. Half cell potentials are:

 

Sn +4+2e - = Sn +2 Eo= 0.154 v

Fe +3+ 1e - = Fe +2 E o= 0.771 v

 

For the reaction: Fe +3+ Sn +2 = Fe +2 + Sn +4

 

a) Balance the reaction.

 

b) Calculate the standard potential

 

c) Calculate the potential of the cell when the [Fe +2 ]=.01 M; [Fe +3]=.001 M; [Sn +2 ] = 1 M; and [Sn +4] = .1 M.1
