What is ? Is reaction 3 spontaneous?
Possible Answers:
, spontaneous
, spontaneous
, nonspontaneous
, nonspontaneous
Correct answer:
, nonspontaneous
Explanation:
There are two concepts to consider in this problem. First, the question asks for the . Reaction 3 has being reduced so the potential for the half reaction becomes negative. half reaction appears the same in reaction 3 so the potential is the same. Second, negative voltages indicate non-spontaneity and positive voltages are spontaneous.
