finding n in G=-nFE

How do you find n?

[Ashley Tran 2I]

n is the number of electron transferred which can be found when you balance the redox reaction.

[Veronica_Lubera_2A]

When you find the half reactions, n is the least common multiple of their shared electrons. So you would have to balance them. (Usually n is either 1 or 2).

[Katie Kyan 2K]

You can find n when you are balancing your redox reaction. n is the moles of electrons being transferred in the balanced reaction.

[Mandeep Garcha 2H]

When you write and balance the half-reactions, the mols of electrons (should be balanced to be the same in both equations) is the number you use as n in the equation.

[Verity Lai 2K]

To find n you balance the redox reaction to determine the number of moles of electrons being transferred during the reaction.

[Justin Seok 2A]

For example in a redox eq like Cu2+ + 2e- ---> Cu, n would be 2 since 2 electrons sre being transferred.

[Nuoya Jiang]

After you balance the redox reaction, the number of electrons in the overall reaction is n.

[RobertXu_2J]

n is the number of electrons exchanged in the general reaction. So you look at the oxidation numbers, and then you look at how they have changed.

use the highest number of moles of electrons transferred according to the half reactions

[Catherine Daye 1L]

You need to write out the half reactions first. When you combine the half reactions, n is the number of electrons on either side of the equation (they cancel each other out).

[Jamie Lee 1F]

n is the number of electrons being transferred in the redox equation.

[Nicholas_Gladkov_2J]

How do you find n?

"n" is found by finding the two half reactions, and balancing them.
When balancing the half reactions, in order to balance the two half reaction charges, you will add electrons. The number of electrons in the reaction is the value of "n".

[faithkim1L]

n is the number of electrons transferred in a redox reaction.

[Jasmine Vallarta 2L]

you can find n after balancing the half rxns. the number of e- should cancel out and that number = n

[Cindy Adiwidjaja 1B]

"n" is the number of balanced electrons on both sides.
