Answer:
The standard cell potential (E°cell) for the voltaic cell based on the reaction below is 0.64 V.
Explanation:
Let's consider the following redox reaction.
Sn²āŗ(aq) + 2 Fe³āŗ(aq) ā 2 Fe²āŗ(aq) + Snā“āŗ(aq)
We can recognize the following half-reactions.
Cathode (reduction): 2 Fe³āŗ(aq) + 2 eā» ā 2 Fe²āŗ(aq) Ā Ā E°red = 0.77 V
Anode (oxidation): Sn²āŗ(aq) ā Snā“āŗ(aq) + 2 eā» Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā E°red = 0.13 V
The standard cell potential (E°cell) is the difference between the standard reduction potential of the cathode and the standard reduction potential of the anode.
E°cell = E°red, cat - E°red, an = 0.77 V - 0.13 V = 0.64 V
