- 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, EE, for each cell. Table 2 provides the standard reduction potentials for several half-reactions related to zinc-mercury and zinc-air cells. Based on the information given, which of the following is a major difference between the zin mercury cell and the lithium-iodine cell? A. During the initial cell operation, each reaction is thermodynamically favorable, but the larger operating potential of the lithium-Iodine cell indicates that its cell reaction is less thermodynamically favorable B.
