Use the hypothetical standard half-cell potentials listed below to calculate the standard cell potential in units of V for the following reaction occurring in an electrochemical cell at 25°C. (The equation is balanced.)

3 Cl 2(g) + 2 Fe(s) → 6 Cl⁻(aq) + 2 Fe 3+(aq)

Cl 2(g) + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻(aq) E° = +1.73 V
Fe 3+(aq) + 3 e⁻ → Fe(s) E° = - 0.14 V
