-
Write the oxidation half-reaction of water
In acidic medium, oxidation of water to oxygen is:
-
Relate moles of water to moles of electrons
From the reaction,
Therefore,
-
Use Faraday's constant
Charge required for 1 mole of electrons is:
So for moles of electrons:
-
Express in the required form
Since the blank is in the form , the value is approximately:
-
Compare with stored answer
Derived answer =
Stored correct answer =
Hence, they agree.
