Pacemakers are electronic devices that help regulate the heart rate. Currently, lithium-iodine cells are commonly used to power pacemakers and have replaced zinc-mercury cells. Table 1 provides the operating
cell potential, E, for each cell. Table 2 provides the standard reduction potentials for several half-reactions related to zinc-mercury and zinc-air cells.
The use of zinc-mercury cells in hearing aids has been replaced by zinc-air cells that operate using the oxidation of Zn by O, from the air, generating a potential of +1.60 V. Table 2 provides the standard
reduction potentials for the half-reactions used in zinc-mercury and zinc-air cells. Which of the following best explains the modification to the cell design that is mostly responsible for the difference in standard
cell potentials for zinc-mercury and zinc-air cells?
The greater standard cell potential of the Zn-air cell compared to that of the zinc-mercury cell most likely results from the thermodynamically more favorable reduction of O, compared to
A
HgO.
The greater standard cell potential of the Zn-air cell compared to that of the zinc-mercury cell most likely results from the greater number of moles of e required to reduce O, compared to
B
HgO.
The greater standard cell potential of the Zn-air cell compared to that of the zinc-mercury cell most likely results from the thermodynamically less favorable reduction of Oz compared to
HgO.
The greater standard cell potential of the Zn-air cell compared to that of the zinc-mercury cell most likely results from the greater number of moles of hydroxide ions required to reduce
D
[Zn(OH),]- compared to Zn(OH),.
