chlorine dioxide ( ClO2) which is produced by the reaction
2 NaClO2 + Cl2 ----> 2 ClO2 + 2 NaCl
has been tested as a disinfectant for municipal water treatment.
a. calculate E^0, delta G^0 and K at 25 degree celcius for the production of ClO2
im doing as
reduction
Cl
2 + 2e ----> 2 Cl - E = + 1.36
and
oxidation
2ClO
2- ----> 2ClO
2 + 2 e What is E for this reaction ? ?
then E for reaction can be calculated and also G can be calculated
G = n F E
and for K Log K = ( n / 0.059 ) E cell
