Problem
The reduction of NO3− occurs as
NO3−+4H++3e−⟶NO+2H2O;E∘=0.96 V
The electrons are provided by Cd till that the solution originally having 0.1 M NO3− and 0.4 M H+ shows that 80% of NO3− ions are converted to NO showing 1 bar pressure. The reduction potential of remaining solution.
(1) 0.84 V
(2) 1.36 V
(3) 1.08 V
(4) 1.56 V
