1. 1Use section 24 (Section 19- 2025 Syllabus) of your data booklet to identify and write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions.
2.Label the anode and cathode on the diagram above.
3.On the diagram above, label the electrode where calcium metal $(Ca_{(s)})$will appear.
2.A different electrochemical cell is shown below. One half-cell contains a lead metal electrode immersed in 1.0 M $Pb(NO3)_2$ solution. A standard electrode potential table is also shown for elements X, Y, and Z.
Elements | Electrode potential |
$X^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2e^- \rightarrow X_{(s)}$ | $E^{\Theta}$=-1.18V |
$Y^+_{(aq)} + 1e^- \rightarrow Y_{(s)}$ | $E^{\Theta}$=-0.45V |
$Z^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2e^- \rightarrow Z_{(s)}$ | $E^{\Theta}$=+0.34V |
1.Label the left half-cell of the diagram with the metal that will produce the highest cell potential.
2.Draw an arrow on the diagram indicating the direction of the flow of electrons.
3.Consult section 24 (Section 19- 2025 Syllabus) in your data booklet to calculate the standard cell potential for the diagrammed cell.
