Question
A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential E0red = −0.52 V. An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the anode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least 1.20 V of electrical power. The cell will operate under standard conditions.
Note for advanced students: assume the engineer requires this half-reaction to happen at the anode of the cell.

- Using a table of standard reductions potentials calculate the solubility product (Ksp) of the compound assigned to you. Write down the two balanced half-reactions and their voltages. Label the anode, the cathode, which cell is the oxidation and reduction and whether it is positive or negative. Indicate the direction of electron flow, the concentrations of all ionic species and the composition of the electrodes. Calculate the voltage of the cell and then, using the voltage, calculate the Ksp of your compound. MUST SHOW ALL WORK!
