The free energy change for the following reaction at 25 °C, when [H+] = 1.15 M and
[Co²+] = = 0.00897 M, is -66.1 kJ:
2H+ (1.15 M) + Co(s) → H₂(g) + Co²+ (0.00897 M)
What is the cell potential for the reaction as written under these conditions?
Ecell
AG=-66.1 kJ
=
V
Would this reaction be spontaneous in the forward or the reverse direction?
O forward direction
O reverse direction
