Expert Solution
Step 1
  • I2(s) + 5Cu+2 (aq) + 6H2O → 2IO3-(aq) + 5 Cu (s) + 12 H+

        E cell of the reaction = Ecathode – Eanode   …..(1)

        Gibbs energy is obtained by ∆G = -nFEcell.   ….(2)

     I2(s) → 2IO3-(aq)      oxidation, Eₒ = -1.20 V

    5Cu+2 (aq) → 5 Cu (s)    , Reduction Eₒ = 0.34 V

         E cell = Ecathode – E anode

                   = 0.34 – (- 1.20) = 1.54 V, which is the positive potential , hence ∆G becomes negative and reaction will be spontaneous.

Step 2
  • Hg+2(aq) + 2I- (aq) → Hg(l) + I2 (s)

Hg+2(aq) → Hg (l)   Reduction Eₒ  = 0.789 V

2I- (aq) → I2 (s) , oxidation, Eₒ = -0.54 V

           E cell = Ecathode – E anode

                     = 0.789 – (- 0.54) V = 1.329 V , positive E cell means negative ∆G and spontaneous reaction.
