For the disproportionation of copper 2Cu+ Cu2+ + Cu, E is (Given E for Cu2+/Cu is 0.34 V and E for Cu2+/Cu+ is 0.15 V.)

  1. 0.49 V
  2. -0.19 V
  3. 0.38 V
  4. -0.38 V

Answer

(3) 0.38 V

Solution

Electrode potentials are not additive, so combine the half-reactions through G = -nFE :

Cu2+ + 2e- Cu; G 1 = -2F(0.34)

Cu2+ + e- Cu+; G 2 = -1F(0.15)

Subtracting: Cu+ + e- Cu; G 3 = G 1 - G 2

⇒ -1F E Cu+/Cu = -0.68F + 0.15F

⇒ E Cu+/Cu = 0.53 V

In 2Cu+ Cu2+ + Cu, Cu+ is reduced to Cu (cathode) and oxidised to Cu2+ (anode).

∴ E cell = E Cu+/Cu - E Cu2+/Cu+

= 0.53 - 0.15

= 0.38 V
