Problem

From the reduction half-reactions in the table below, select the two that, when combined under standard conditions, give a standard cell potential closest to +1.05 V. Report the letter labels of the two chosen reactions and the resulting E°cell value. A. Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag(s)  E° = +0.80 V B. Fe³⁺ + e⁻ → Fe²⁺  E° = +0.77 V C. Ni²⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Ni(s) E° = –0.25 V
