In an electrochemical reaction of lead, at standard temperature, if E0( Pb2+/Pb)=m\mathrm{E}^{0}\left(\mathrm{~Pb}^{2+} / \mathrm{Pb}\right)=\mathrm{m}E0( Pb2+/Pb)=m Volt and E0( Pb4+/Pb)=n\mathrm{E}^{0}\left(\mathrm{~Pb}^{4+} / \mathrm{Pb}\right)=\mathrm{n}E0( Pb4+/Pb)=n Volt, then the value of E0( Pb2+/Pb4+)\mathrm{E}^{0}\left(\mathrm{~Pb}^{2+} / \mathrm{Pb}^{4+}\right)E0( Pb2+/Pb4+) is given by m−xn\mathrm{m-x n}m−xn. The value of x\mathrm{x}x is ___________. (Nearest integer)
Pb2++2 e− → Pb Δ G10=−2 FE10 \mathrm{Pb}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Pb} \quad \Delta \mathrm{G}_1^0=-2 \mathrm{FE}_1^0 \\ Pb2++2 e− → Pb Δ G10=−2 FE10
Pb4++4 e− → Pb Δ G20=−4 FE20 \mathrm{~Pb}^{4+}+4 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Pb} \quad \Delta \mathrm{G}_2^0=-4 \mathrm{FE}_2^0 \\ Pb4++4 e− → Pb Δ G20=−4 FE20
Pb2+ → Pb4++2 e− Δ G30=−2 FE30 \mathrm{~Pb}^{2+} \rightarrow \mathrm{Pb}^{4+}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \quad \Delta \mathrm{G}_3^0=-2 \mathrm{FE}_3^0 \\ Pb2+ → Pb4++2 e− Δ G30=−2 FE30
Δ G30=Δ G10−Δ G20 \Delta \mathrm{G}_3^0=\Delta \mathrm{G}_1^0-\Delta \mathrm{G}_2^0 \\ Δ G30=Δ G10−Δ G20
−2 FE30=2 F(2 n−m) -2 \mathrm{FE}_3^0=2 \mathrm{~F}(2 \mathrm{n}-\mathrm{m}) \\ −2 FE30=2 F(2 n−m)
E30=m−2 n=m−xn \mathrm{E}_3^0=\mathrm{m}-2 \mathrm{n}=\mathrm{m}-\mathrm{xn} E30=m−2 n=m−xn
Hence x=2\mathrm{x}=2x=2
