ΔG0 of a reaction is called the change in free energy for that reaction. Now it is calculated from the formula-
ΔG0 = -nFE0
where n = number of moles of electrons involved in the reaction
F = faradeys constant = 96485 C
E0 = Standard reduction potential of cell
1- For the given reaction
Cr2O72- + 14 H+ + 6Fe+2 -------------> 2Cr+3 + 6Fe+3 + 7H2O
Now we know in an electrochemical cell, two half reactions occurs.
The E0 of the cell = E0 (reduction half cell) - E0 (oxidation half cell)
Now for the above reaction, we can see the oxidation state of Cr in the left = +6 and in the right = +3. That means gain of electron take place here. So Cr has undergone Reduction
And oxidation state of Fe in the left = +2 and in the right = +3. That means loss of electron take place here. So Fe has undergone Oxidation
Hence
Oxidation half cell : Fe+2 -------------> Fe+3 + e E0red = -0.04 V
Reduction half cell : Cr+6 + 3e-------------> Cr+3 E0red = 1.33 V
So balancing these reactions
Oxidation half cell : Fe+2 -------------> Fe+3 + e]*3 E0red = -0.04 V * 3
Reduction half cell : Cr+6 + 3e-------------> Cr+3 E0red = 1.33 V
Or
Oxidation half cell : 3Fe+2 -------------> 3Fe+3 + 3e E0red = -0.12 V
Reduction half cell : Cr+6 + 3e -------------> Cr+3 E0red = 1.33 V
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall reaction : 3Fe+2 + Cr+6 -------------> 3Fe+3 + Cr+3 E0cell = E0red (1.33 V) - E0red (-0.12 V)
= 1.33 V + 0.12 V
= 1.45 V
So putting the values
ΔG0 = -nFE0
= -3 * 96485 C * 1.45 V
= -419709 J
= -419.709 kJ
Now since the calculated ΔG0 has a negative value, that means the reaction (a) is spontaneous in forward direction.
Similarly for reaction- b
3Pb2+ + 2Cr+3 + 7 H2O -------------> 3Pb + Cr2O72- + 14 H+
Oxidation half cell : Cr+3 -------------> Cr+6 + 3e E0red = -1.33 V
Reduction half cell : Pb+2 + 2e-------------> Pb E0red = -0.13 V
So balancing these reactions
Oxidation half cell : Cr+3 -------------> Cr+6 + 3e]*2 E0red = -1.33 V * 2
Reduction half cell : Pb+2 + 2e-------------> Pb] *3 E0red = -0.13 V * 3
Or
Oxidation half cell : 2Cr+3 -------------> 2Cr+6 + 6e E0red = -2.66 V
Reduction half cell : 3Pb+2 + 6e-------------> 3Pb E0red = -0.39 V
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall reaction : 2Cr+3 + 3Pb+2 -------------> 2Cr+6 + 3Pb E0cell = E0red (-0.39 V) - E0red ( -2.66 V)
= -0.39 V + 2.66 V
= 2.27 V
So putting the values
ΔG0 = -nFE0
= -6 * 96485 C * 2.27 V
= -13141259 J
= -13141.259 kJ
Now since the calculated ΔG0 has a negative value, that means the reaction (b) is spontaneous in forward direction.
