What is the value of the equilibrium constant at 25 oC for t
What is the value of the equilibrium constant at 25 oC for the reaction between the pair:
Br2(l) and Cl-(aq)
Use the reduction potential values for Br2(l) of +1.07 V and for Cl2(g) of +1.36 V
Solution
Br2 + 2Cl- --->2Br- +Cl2
so,
Eo=-1.36+1.07
=-0.29 V
so,
Eo=(0.059/2) *log(k)
or -0.29=(0.059/2) * log(k)
or k=1.477*10^-10
