E cell potential
« on: February 19, 2018, 10:25:44 PM »
Hi good day!
just want to ask this one.
I dunno if its me or my research ability is not enough but...
how come this Mn equals to -1.05??
I had been searching all standard potential values at 298K (starting from Atkins) and all they giving me is -1.18.
i tried to compute it and the value is giving me is around 0.47 to 0.48.
on our slide it goes with 0.6.its all because of that -1.05 value.

can you help me out on this one cuz really, I did all that I can but its giving me -1.05 for cell potential of E.
AM i wrong?
thank you so much.
I am not confident on my answer cuz u know, its my professor's answer after all.
Maybe there is some trick or whatsoever but I cant really find it.

here is the picture. thank you guys!!!

What is the definition of standard potential?

You post is so chaotic it is not clear what the problem is.

Do you mean the answer you have calculated doesn't agree with the answer given by your prof and you wonder if it is because the value he gave for Mn half potential is a wrong one?

Could someone tell me under what circumstances Al3+ dissolves in water in 1.5M concentration?
