  9. SAMPLE PROBLEM Evaluate the standard cell potential of each of the following cells and indicate whether the cell is GALVANIC or ELECTROLYTIC. • AuCl4- + Fe2+Au(s) + 4Cl- +Fe3+ • K+ + H2O(l) O2(g) + H+ + K(s)

  10. SEATWORK Complete the cell reaction for: Pb(s) + MnO4- Pb2+ + Mn2+ Identify the oxidation and reduction half reaction and evaluate the Standard Cell Potential.

  11. CELL REPRESENTATION Anode | Oxidation || Reduction | Reduction Anode Before Cathode! Zn(s) | Zn2+(aq) || Cu2+(aq) | Cu(s)
