. A chemist designs a galvanic cell that uses these two half-reactions: I2(s + 2e- → 2I-(aq);                   E˚red = 0.54 V Zr4+(aq) + 4e- → Zr(s); E˚red = -1.53 V What is the standard cell potential, E˚cell?

Magnesium chloride reacts with water to form magnesium oxide and hydrochloric acid according to the reaction: MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2HCl(g) The value of ∆H = 140.0 kJ and ∆S = 412.0 J K-1. Determine ∆G for this reaction at 114.0˚C.
