I
I don't think it's for reactions that go to completion because the whole page talks about equilibrium reactions (and if the reaction did go to completion, there wouldn't be a case for it to proceed backwards in the same conditions).
Just above the table, it says this: *If the E° value of the reaction is negative, then the reaction is NOT spontaneous and therefore the reverse reaction is occuring and the electrons are flowing in the opposite direction.
This is the opposite of our case. Our case is that Ecell is positive, so the forward reaction is occuring more than the backward.

But anyway, I guess only the mark scheme can say for sure..!
If the Cell is not positive, the Forward reaction is NOT FEASIBLE in the first place.

I have very strong feeling that this is the right answer. I believe strongly that what you have got, although many did not get it, is right. There is no way of comparing the iron 3 and iron 2, it is EQUILIBRIUM.
Meaning you have to compare reactants with reactants, and products with products.


Oh ok
I c what u mean
I get how u got it

even i rote the same=D r u sure about ur ans??

I'm pretty sure because the testing for drugs in athletes' urine comes in the Coursebook under gas-liquid, the dyes in foodstuffs is comparable to the dyes in ink (which are usually separated by paper chromatography) and the insecticides dissolved in water I thought was thin-layer because u need a polar solute and if the insecticides were dissolved in water it must mean that they are polar (also because it was the only one left to choose from, excluding HPLC).
