Problem

Consider the balanced redox reaction below, carried out under standard conditions: Sn2+(aq)+2 Fe3+(aq)→Sn4+(aq)+2 Fe2+(aq)\mathrm{Sn^{2+}}(aq) + 2\,\mathrm{Fe^{3+}}(aq) \rightarrow \mathrm{Sn^{4+}}(aq) + 2\,\mathrm{Fe^{2+}}(aq) The standard cell potential is Ecell∘=+0.15 VE^{\circ}_{\text{cell}} = +0.15\,\text{V}. Using F=96,485 C mol−1F = 96{,}485\,\text{C mol}^{-1}, calculate the standard Gibbs free energy change ΔG∘\Delta G^{\circ} (in kJ per mole of reaction).
