What is the equilibrium constant (K c ) for the reaction: Cu(s) + 2Ag+(aq) → Cu2+(aq) + 2Ag(s) if the standard cell potential (Eo (cell) is 0.46 V)?
Options
- A0.46
- B3.19
- C1015 × 2
- D3.92 × 1015
Correct answer
D. 3.92 × 1015
Step-by-step solution
Eo (cell) = 0.059V ÷ 2 log K C = 0.46 or log K C = (0.46V x 2) ÷ 0.059V = 15.6 K C = 3.92 x 1015
