For the disproportionation reaction 2 Cu + aq ⇌ Cu s + Cu 2 + aq at 298 K , ln   K (where K is…

For the disproportionation reaction 2Cu+aqCus+Cu2+aq at 298K,ln K  (where K is the equilibrium constant) is _______×10-1

Given :E°Cu2+/Cu+=0.16V E°Cu+/Cu=0.52VRTF=0.025

Solution

Ecello=ECu+/Cu°-ECu2+/Cu+°

=0.52-0.16=0.36 V

Ecell°=RTnFlnKeq

0.36=0.0251lnk

In k=14.4      =144×10-1
