Solutions

Expert Solution

1) E^0 CELL = E^0 (Ni^+2 /Ni) - E^0 (Al^+3/Al)

                    = -0.23-(-1.66)

                    =1.43V

2)

       E^0 CELL = E^0 (NO3^-1 /NO) - E^0 (Cu^+2/Cu)

= 0.96-(0.34)

                       = 0.62V

    DG = -nF E^0 CELL

        = -(2*96500*0.62)

        = -119660 J

       = -119.66kJ

3) THE ELECTRODE WHICH HAS LOWER REDUCTION POTENTIAL THAT CAN BE ACTS AS A ANODE

THERFOER NICKEL ELECTRODE HAS LOWER REDCTION POTENTIAL THA SILVER.HENCE THE REACTION AT ANODE IS

Ni(s) -------------------------> Ni^+2 (aq)
