Correct answer: 16
- We are given the standard reduction potentials:
We need to find:
- Standard electrode potentials cannot be added directly, so we use the relation with standard Gibbs free energy:
- Write the target reaction as a combination of the given reactions.
Reaction (A):
Reverse it: Then
Reaction (B):
Add reaction (B) to reverse of (A) multiplied suitably:
Actually,
So Gibbs energies add:
- Compute values.
For reaction (B):
For reaction (A):
So for reverse of (A):
Hence for
- Now convert back to electrode potential for the 2-electron reaction:
- The question asks for the magnitude in the form:
Since
So the required nearest integer is:
