Chemistry Question on Electrochemistry

At 298K298 \,K, a 1 litre solution containing 10mmol10\, m\,mol of Cr2O72Cr _2 O _7{ }^{2-} and 100mmol100\, m\,mol of Cr3+Cr ^{3+} shows a pH of 30.

Given: Cr2O72Cr3+;E=1330VCr _2 O _7^{2-} \rightarrow Cr ^{3+} ; E ^{\circ}=1330 V and 2303RTF=0059V\frac{2303 RT }{ F }=0059 V.

The potential for the half cell reaction is x×103Vx \times 10^{-3} V. The value of xx is ___ .

Answer

Cr2​O72−​+14H++6e−→2Cr3++7H2​O
E=1.33−60.059​log(10−2)(10−3)14(0.1)2​
E=1.33−60.059​×42=0.917
E=917×10−3
x=917

So, the correct answer is 917.
