A half-cell that consists of a copper wire in 100 m cuno3


A half-cell that consists of a copper wire in 1.00 M CuNO3 solution is connected by a salt bridge to a half cell containing a 1.00 M X(II) acetate solution and an electrode of metal X. The voltage of the cell is 1.37 V, with metal X as the positive electrode. Calculate the standard reduction potential for the X half-reaction. The standard reduction potential of the copper half-reaction is 0.52 V. (Hint, write the half-reactions and the overall chemical equation for the spontaneous reaction.)
