Explanation / Answer

For the given cell,

(a) Balanced equation,

Fe3+(aq) + Cu+(aq) --> Fe2+(aq) + Cu2+(aq)

(b) half reactions,

Fe3+(aq) + e- <==> Fe2+(aq) Eo = 0.767 V

Cu2+(aq) + e- <==> Cu+(aq)   Eo = 0.161 V

(c) Correct Nernst equations

A

G

(d) Ecell values,

(i) Volume Cu+ = 2.50 ml

moles Fe3+ = 0.02 M x 100 ml = 2 mmol

moles Cu+ = 0.1 M x 2.50 ml = 0.25 mmol

[Fe2+] formed = 0.25 mmol/102.5 ml = 0.00244 M

[Fe3+] remained = 1.75 mmol/102.5 ml = 0.0171 M

Ecell = 0.767 - 0.05916 log(0.00244/0.0171) - 0.197 = 0.62 V

(ii) Volume Cu+ = 10 ml

moles Fe3+ = 0.02 M x 100 ml = 2 mmol

moles Cu+ = 0.1 M x 10 ml = 1 mmol

[Fe2+] formed = [Fe3+] remained

Ecell = 0.767 - 0.197 = 0.57 V

(iii) Volume Cu+ = 18 ml

moles Fe3+ = 0.02 M x 100 ml = 2 mmol

moles Cu+ = 0.1 M x 18 ml = 1.8 mmol

[Fe2+] formed = 1.8 mmol/118 ml = 0.01525 M

[Fe3+] remained = 0.2 mmol/118 ml = 0.0017 M

Ecell = 0.767 - 0.05916 log(0.01525/0.0017) - 0.197 = 0.514 V

(iv) Volume Cu+ = 20 ml

moles Fe3+ = 0.02 M x 100 ml = 2 mmol

moles Cu+ = 0.1 M x 20 ml = 2 mmol

Equivalence point

Ecell = (0.767 + 0.161)/2 - 0.197 = 0.267 V

(v) Volume Cu+ = 21.5 ml

moles Fe3+ = 0.02 M x 100 ml = 2 mmol

moles Cu+ = 0.1 M x 21.5 ml = 2.15 mmol

[Cu2+] formed = 2 mmol/121.5 ml = 0.0165 M

[Cu+] remained = 0.15 mmol/121.5 ml = 0.00123 M

Ecell = 0.161 - 0.05916 log(0.00123/0.0165) - 0.197 = 0.031 V

(vi) Volume Cu+ = 40 ml

moles Fe3+ = 0.02 M x 100 ml = 2 mmol

moles Cu+ = 0.1 M x 4 ml = 4 mmol

[Cu2+] formed = [Cu+] remained

Ecell = 0.161 - 0.197 = -0.036 V
