Chemistry

A battery is constructed from these two half reactions:

           i.   VO2+   +   2H+ + e-   → V3+   +H2O       Eo = 0.337 V vs SHE

           ii.   TiF62 ̶  +   4 e-   →   Ti(s) + 6F ̶                         Eo = ̶ 1.191 V

(a) (0.2 pt) Which half reaction is in the anodecompartment?   Circleone:     vanadiumrxn      titanium rxn

(b) Which half reaction is in the cathode compartment?Circle one:    vanadiumrxn      titanium rxn

(c) Write the balanced chemical equation for the overall batteryreaction.

(d) Show the shorthand notation for representing this particularbattery:

(e) Calculate the Eo of the battery.
