Title: Electrochemical cells
Post by: JackBlack on April 28, 2012, 01:22:12 PM

You are given the standard reduction potentials E^o(Ag/AgI/I-) = +0.151 V and
E^o(Ag/AgI+) = +0.798 V.

Write down, in conventional form, an electrochemical cell to describe
the solubility of AgI in aqueous solution. Write down also the half-cell
reactions and the total cell reaction.


I dont understand what E^o(Ag/AgI/I-) means, how would i write the half cell reaction for this??

many thanks.
