(i)
For a galvanic cell, the following half reactions are given. Decide, which will remain as reduction reaction and which will be reversed to become an oxidation reaction. Give reason for your answer.
(I)
$\displaystyle \mathrm{Cr}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \operatorname{Cr}(\mathrm{s}) ; \mathrm{E}^{\circ}=-0.74 \mathrm{~V}$
(II)
$\displaystyle \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{s}) ; \mathrm{E}^{\circ}=-0.44 \mathrm{~V}$
(ii)
Represent the cell in which the following reaction takes place : $\displaystyle \mathrm{Mg}(\mathrm{s})+2 \mathrm{Ag}^{+}(0 \cdot 001 \mathrm{M}) \rightarrow \mathrm{Mg}^{2+}(0 \cdot 100 \mathrm{M})+2 \mathrm{Ag}(\mathrm{s})$ Calculate $\displaystyle \mathrm{E}_{\text {cell }}$ if $\displaystyle \mathrm{E}_{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=3 \cdot 17 \mathrm{~V} .(\log 10=1)$
