Question

Given: Ag+(aq) + e- -> Ag(s) E = +0.799 V
AgI(s) + e- -> Ag(s) + I-(aq) E = -0.152 V
Ni2+(aq) + 2 e- -> Ni(s) E = -0.267 V
Which of the following reactions should be spontaneous under standard conditions?
I. 2 AgI(s) + Ni(s) -> 2 Ag(s) + 2 I-(aq) + Ni2+(aq)
II. Ag+(aq) + I-(aq) -> AgI(s)
A) I and II are both nonspontaneous.
B) I is nonspontaneous and II is spontaneous.
C) I is spontaneous and II is nonspontaneous.
D) I and II are both spontaneous.
