Consider the cell at 25°C25 ° C

Zn∣Zn2+(aq),(1M)‖Fe3+(aq),Fe2+(aq)∣Pt(s)Zn\left|{Zn}^{2 +}\left(aq\right), \left(1M\right) ‖ {Fe}^{3 +} ( aq ) , {Fe}^{2 +}\left(aq\right)\right|Pt\left(s\right)

The fraction of total iron present as Fe3+{Fe}^{3 +} ion at the cell potential of 1.500V1 . 500V is x×10−2x \times {10}^{- 2}. The value of xx is ______. (Nearest integer)

Given: {E}^{∘}{Fe}^{3 +} | {Fe}^{2 +} = 0 . 77V, {E}^{∘}{Zn}^{2 +} | Zn = - 0 . 76V$

Consider the cell at 25 ° C Zn| Zn ^ 2 + (aq), (1M) ‖ Fe ^ 3 + ( aq ) , Fe ^ 2 + (aq)|Pt(s) The fraction of total iron

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Consider the cell at 25 ° C Zn| Zn ^ 2 + (aq), (1M) ‖ Fe ^ 3 + ( aq ) , Fe ^ 2 + (aq)|Pt(s) The fraction of total iron

Ecell0=0.77−(0.76){E}_{cell}^{0} = 0 . 77 - \left(0 . 76\right)

=1.53V= 1 . 53V

1.50=1.53−0.062log(Fe2+Fe3+)21 . 50 = 1 . 53 - \dfrac{0 . 06}{2}log{\left(\dfrac{{Fe}^{2 +}}{{Fe}^{3 +}}\right)}^{2}

log⁡(Fe2+Fe3+)=0.030.06=12\log \left(\dfrac{{Fe}^{2 +}}{{Fe}^{3 +}}\right) = \dfrac{0 . 03}{0 . 06} = \dfrac{1}{2}

[Fe2+][Fe3+]=101/2=10\dfrac{\left[{Fe}^{2 +}\right]}{\left[{Fe}^{3 +}\right]} = {10}^{1 / 2} = \sqrt{10}

[Fe3+][Fe2+]=110\dfrac{\left[{Fe}^{3 +}\right]}{\left[{Fe}^{2 +}\right]} = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{10}}

[Fe3+][Fe2+]+[Fe3+]=11+10=14.16\dfrac{\left[{Fe}^{3 +}\right]}{\left[{Fe}^{2 +}\right] + \left[{Fe}^{3 +}\right]} = \dfrac{1}{1 + \sqrt{10}} = \dfrac{1}{4 . 16}

=0.2402= 0 . 2402

=24×10−2= 24 \times {10}^{- 2}
