Question

What are the half-reactions for the following reference electrodes? Include physical states.

What are the half-reactions for the following reference electrodes? Include physical states, The silver-silver chloride electrode. The saturated calomel electrode. What is the voltage of the cell: silver-silver chloride electrode || saturated calomel electrode given that the potential for the Ag|AgCI electrode in a saturated KCI solution is +0.197 V and the potential for a saturated calomel electrode is +0.241 V.?

Explanation / Answer

(a) AgCl(s) + e- <----> Ag(s) + Cl-(aq) . E^o = 0.222 V

(b) Hg2Cl2(s) + 2e- <----> 2 Hg(s) + 2Cl-(aq). E^o = 0.268 V
