Copper reduces NO_3^- into NO and NO_2 depending upon conc of HNO_3 in solution. Assuming [Cu^(2+)] =0.1M, and P_(NO)=P_(NO_2)=10^(-3)atm and using given data answer the following questions. E_(Cu^(2+)//Cu)^0=+0.34 volt E_(NO_3^-//NO)^0=+0.96 volt E_(NO_3^-//NO_2)^0=+0.79 volt at 298K (RT)/F(2.303)=0.06 volt At what HNO_3 concentration thermodynamic tendency for reduction of NO_3 into NO and NO_2 by copper is same ? |
