Question

Using the following standard reduction potentials,
Fe3+(aq) + e- ->Fe2+(aq) E = +0.77 V
Cd2+(aq) + 2 e- -> Cd(s) E = -0.40 V
calculate the standard cell potential for the cell reaction given below, and determine whether or not this reaction is spontaneous under standard conditions.
Cd2+(aq) + 2 Fe2+(aq) -> 2 Fe3+(aq) + Cd(s)
A) E = -1.17 V, nonspontaneous
B) E = -1.17 V, spontaneous
C) E = +1.17 V, nonspontaneous
D) E = +1.17 V, spontaneous
