20. Electrochemistry / Cell Potential and Equilibrium / Problem 6

Given the following E°red

Cl2(g) + 2 e− → 2 Cl (aq)                                                  E°red = 1.36 V

MnO4(aq) + 8 H+(aq) + 5 e → Mn2+(aq) + 4 H2O(l)       E°red = 1.51 V

What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction at 298 K? 

10 Cl (aq) + 2 MnO4(aq) + 16 H+(aq) → 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l) + 5 Cl2(g)
