At 73.0 ∘c , what is the maximum value of the reaction quotient, q, needed to produce a non-negative e value for the reaction so42−(aq)+4h+(aq)+2br−(aq)⇌br2(aq)+so2(g)+2h2o(l) in other words, what is q when e=0 at this temperature?

Here we will use the general formula of Nernst equation:

Ecell = E°Cell - [(RT/nF)] *㏑Q

when E cell is cell potential at non - standard state conditions

E°Cell is standard state cell potential = - 0.87 V

and R is a constant = 8.314 J/mol K

and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 73 + 273 = 346 K

and F is Faraday's constant = 96485 C/mole

and n is the number of moles of electron transferred in the reaction=2  

and Q is the reaction quotient for the reaction 
SO42-2(aq) + 4H+(aq) +2Br-(aq) ↔  Br2(aq) + SO2(g) +2H2O(l)

so by substitution :

0 = -0.87 - [(8.314*346K)/(2* 96485)*㏑Q      → solve for Q 


∴ Q = 4.5 x 10^-26
