Question:
$\text{The standard reduction potential for Cu}^{2+}/\text{Cu is 0.34 V. The reduction potential at pH = 14 for the above couple given } (K_{sp}[\text{Cu}(\text{OH})_2] = 1 \times 10^{-19}) \text{ is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $-0.22 \text{ V}$
  • 2. $+0.22 \text{ V}$
  • 3. $-0.34 \text{ V}$
  • 4. $+0.34 \text{ V}$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: } K_{sp} = [\text{Cu}^{2+}] \cdot [\text{OH}^-]^2$ $\text{Step 1:}$ $\text{The pH of solution is 14. Calculate the concentration of OH}^- \text{ ion is as follows:}$ $\text{pH} = 14$ $\text{pH} = -\log[\text{H}^+]$ $14 = -\log[\text{H}^+]$ $[\text{H}^+] = 10^{-14}$ $\text{The concentration of OH}^- \text{ ion is}$ $K_w = [\text{H}^+] \times [\text{OH}^-]$ $\frac{10^{-14}}{10^{-14}} = [\text{OH}^-]$ $[\text{OH}^-] = 1$ $\text{Step 2:}$ $\text{Calculate the value of Cu}^{2+} \text{ ion in solution as follows:}$ $\text{The dissociation reaction of Cu(OH)}_2 \text{ is as follows:}$ $\text{Cu}(\text{OH})_2 \rightleftharpoons \text{Cu}^{2+} + 2\text{OH}^-$ $K_{sp} = [\text{Cu}^{2+}] \cdot [\text{OH}^-]^2$ $1 \times 10^{-19} = [\text{Cu}^{2+}] \times (1)^2$ $[\text{Cu}^{2+}] = 1 \times 10^{-19}$ $\text{Step 3:}$ $\text{Calculate the reduction potential of Cu(OH)}_2 \text{ is as follows:}$ $\text{E} = \text{E}^o - \frac{0.059}{n} \log \left[ \frac{1}{[\text{Cu}^{2+}]} \right]$ $\text{Given, E}^o = 0.34$ $\text{Cu} \rightarrow \text{Cu}^{2+} + 2\text{e}^-$ $\text{E} = 0.34 - \frac{0.059}{2} \log \left[ \frac{1}{[\text{Cu}^{2+}]} \right]$ $\text{E} = 0.34 - \frac{0.059}{2} \log \left[ \frac{1}{10^{-19}} \right]$ $\text{E} = 0.34 - \frac{0.059}{2} \log [10^{19}]$ $\text{E} = 0.34 - \frac{0.059}{2} \times 19$ $\text{E} = 0.34 - 0.56 = -0.22 \text{ V}$
