Question:

A solution of Sn2+ is to be electrolyzed to reduce the Sn2+ to Sn(s). Calculate the cathode potential (versus S.H.E.) needed to reduce [Sn2+] to 1.0 × 10-8 M if no concentration polarization occurs. What would be the potential versus S.C.E. instead of S.H.E.? Would the potential be more positive or more negative if concentration polarization occurred?
