The nickel-cadmium battery cell has a standard potential of +1.20 v. The cell reaction is 2 NiO(OH)(s) + Cd(s) + 2H2O(l) ===%26gt; 2 Ni(OH)2(s) + Cd(OH)2(s). What is the standard free energy change for this reaction?
A. -38.7 kJ
B. -116 kJ
C. -232 kJ
D. -463 kJ
What is the standard free energy change for this reaction?
∆G = -nFE° = -2*96485*1.20 = -232 (kJ)
