In a voltaic cell, calculate the standard cell potential (E°) for the following half-reactions: Oxidation: Fe²⁺(aq) -> Fe³⁺(aq) + e⁻ (E° = +0.77 V) Reduction: Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻ -> 2Cl⁻(aq) (E° = +1.36 V)

To calculate the standard cell potential (E°) for the voltaic cell, you need to subtract the reduction potential from the oxidation potential.

E° cell = E° oxidation + E° reduction

E° cell = (+0.77 V) + (+1.36 V)
E° cell = +2.13 V
