Question

How would you determine the standard electrode potential of the system Mg2+1 Mg​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer:Use standard hydrogen electrode as anode and Mg2+ | Mg as a cathode we can measure the standard electrode potential of systemMg2+ | Mg. Standard hydrogen electrode, represented by Pt(s), H2(g) (1 atm) | H+ (aq) and dip the electrode of Magnesium wire in a 1M MgSO4 solution .The standard hydrogen electrode is always zero.

Use formula

E°cell = E° right – E°left

The standard hydrogen electrode is always zero.

So that the value of

E°left =0
