From the standard potentials
Tl+ +e- ↔ Tl(s) E+0 = -0.336 V
TlCl(s) + e- ↔ Tl(s) +Cl- E-0 = -0.557 V
calculate the solubility product constant of TlCl. Assume the activity of chloride ion of exactly 1.00. Report the answer to the correct number of significant figures.
Eocell = Eored - Eooxodation
= - 0.557 - (- 0.336)
= - 0.221 V
delta Go = - n F Eocell
= - 1 x 96485 x - 0.221
= 21.323 kJ/mol
delta Go = - RT ln Ksp
21.323 = - 8.314 x 10^-3 x 298 x ln Ksp
Ksp = 1.83 x 10^-4
solubility product constant of TlCl = 1.83 x 10^-4
