Question 16 of 24
A galvanic cell can be set up using the following pair of half-reactions:
I2 (s) + 2e- → 2I- (aq) ξ° = 0.540 VFe2+ (aq) + 2e- → Fe (s) ξº = -0.440 V
Is the following statement true or false when these half-reactions are part of a standard cell?
The size of the Fe electrode will decrease as the reaction proceeds.
Select one:
False
True
