Question

For the following reaction (unbalanced): Cu^2+(aq)+Fe(s)=Fe^3+(aq)+Cu(s)... a) what is being oxidized? b) what is being reduced? c) write the balanced reaction equation. d) calculate E e) calculate Delta G f) calculate Keq

Answer 1

Copper is being reduced and Iron is being oxidized.

The balanced equation is:
\[3Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Fe(s) -> 2Fe^{3+}(aq)+3Cu(s)\]

Answer 2

calculate delta E, delta G, and Keq

Answer 3

osirisus was totally right

Answer 4

While I'd love to calculate such things for you it wasn't covered in Chem 1. I'm assuming those are Chem 2 terms.
