Environmental Standard Reduction Potentials

We will consider a simple reversible redox reaction for which we are able to measure directly the free energy change, G, with a galvanic cell. The redox reaction is the reversible interconversion of 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ) and hydroquinnone (HQ) with a platinum electrode immersed in an aqueous solution buffered at pH 7. This half-cell is coupled to a standard hydrogen electrode (SHE), which is an aqueous solution at pH 0 ([H ] = 1 M) with H 2 (g) bubbling thru at 1 atm and a platinum electrode. The reactions occurring at each electrode are then: H2 (g) ==== 2 H + 2e

OHHOOO+2e2H+ BQ HQ

where we omit the denotion (aq) for dissolved species.

The overall reaction is;

BQ + H

and since [H (1M)] = 1, and = 1, we obtain 2 H P 14

and we can find the cell voltage from:

G = nFE

However we are dealing with redox reactions occurring in natural waters and are more interested in redox potential values that are more representative of typical natural conditions and not solutions at pH = 0 ([H ] = 1 M). We therefore define a value o HH EE o H E (E oH )W (the W indicating conditions typical for natural waters) by setting the pH = 7, [Cl ] = 10 -3

In this example, we considered a reversible redox reaction with an overall transfer of two electrons. Since in most abiotic multi-electron redox processes, particularly if organic compounds are involved, the actual electron transfer occurs by a sequence of one- electron transfer steps. There are intermediates formed which are very reactive, that is, they are not stable under environmental conditions. In the example, BQ is first reduced to the corresponding semiquinone (SQ) which is then reduced to HQ:

OHHOOOOHO+e+H+e+H

BQ SQ HQ

Each of these subsequent one-electron steps has its own value, which we can denote and : )W(E oH )W(E H1 )W(E H2

BQ + H

+ e ==== SQ = +0.10 v )W(E H 1

SQ + H

+ e ==== HQ = +0.46 v )W(E H 2 From these values, we see that that the transfer of the first electron to BQ is much less spontaneous (smaller positive voltage), as compared to the transfer of the second electron to SQ. In general, we can assume that the formation of an organic radical is much less favorable from an energetic point of view, as compared to the formation of an organic species exhibiting an even number of electrons. From this we may conclude that the first step of a two-electron transfer between an organic molecule and an electron donor or acceptor is frequently the rate-limiting step. Thus, when we are interested in relating thermodynamic and kinetic data (e.g., thru LFER's), we need to consider primarily the E H values of this rate limiting step, that is, the E H value of the first one-electron transfer. The following table summarizes standard reduction potentials of some environmentally important redox couples.

= 10 -5 M It should be pointed out that many of the half-reactions that we consider do not occur reversibly at an electrode surface, so that we would not be able to measure the corresponding E H values using a galvanic cell.

Nevertheless, it is very convenient to

express the free energy change of a half-reaction by assigning the appropriate reduction potentials, that is, E H = G/nF. One possibility is to calculate such reduction potentials from thermodynamic data, for example, from standard free energies of formation, G f of the various species involved in the half-reaction. To illustrate, consider the half-reaction: 2 NO 3 + 12 H + 10e N 2 (g) + 6 H 2 O which is catalyzed by microorganisms and is commonly referred to as denitrification.

Redox Processes That Determine Redox Conditions In The Environment From the data in the table above (Standard Reduction Potentials At 25C Of Some Redox Couples That Are Important In Natural Redox Processes), we can get a general idea about the maximum free energy that microorganisms may gain from catalyzing redox reactions. On earth, the maintena nce of life resulting directly or indirectly from a steady input of solar energy is the main cause for nonequilibrium redox conditions. In the process of photosynthesis, organic compounds exhibiting reduced states of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur are synthesized, and at the same time oxidized species including molecular oxygen, O 2 (oxic photosynthesis) or oxidized sulfur species (anoxic photosynthesis) are produced. Using glucose as a model organic compound, we can express oxic photosynthesis by combining equati ons (1) and (13) from the above table.

Since we are looking at the overall process, it

is convenient to write the reaction with a stoichiometry corresponding to the transfer of one electron (remembering that and (w) are independent of the number of electrons transferred). (w) G° H (w)/n (v) (kJ.mol -1
