(1) Solution A and B are separated by a membrane that is permeable to Mg2 and impermeable to Cl-. Solution A contains 0.1 mM MgCl2, solution B contains 100 mM MgCl2. Mg2 will be at electrochemical equilibrium when solution A is around ____________ mV. 180 mV - 180 mV 90 mV - 90 mV 60 mV - 60 mV

Answer:

90 mV

Explanation:

Faraday constant, F = 96487

Gas constant, R = 8.314

Number of mole of electron transferred, Z = 2

MgCl in solution A, = 0.1 mm

MgCl in solution A, = 100 mm

Using the relation :

E=(RT/ZF) In(Mg out/Mgin)

E = (8.314*298) / (2*96485) * In(100/0.1)

E = (2477.572 / 192970) * 6.9077552

E = 0.0128391 * 6.9077552

E = 0.0886897 V

E = 88.68 mV (approximately 90 mV)
