Explanation / Answer

E= E0 - (0.059/n) log Q

Assuming n=1

A) 0.0= E0 - (0.059) log (1/10)

E0= 0.0-0.059 = -0.059 V

So, delta G0= -nFE0= -96.5 kJ/Vmol* (-0.059 V) = + 5.69 kJ/mol

B) 0.1 V= E0 - (0.059) log (1/10)

E0= 0.1-0.059 = 0.041 V

So, delta G0= -nFE0= -96.5 kJ/Vmol*0.041 V = - 3.95 kJ/mol

C) B is more favorable since a -ve Gibbs free energy indicates spontanity of a process.

D) Transport B will be an active transport, but transport A will require external energy to carry out the process.
