Use the tabulated values of ΔG∘f to calculate E∘cell for the fuel cell breathalyzer, which employs the reaction below.
CH3CH2OH(g)+O2(g)→HC2H3O2(g)+H2O(g)

Reactant/Product ΔG∘f(kJ/mol)
CH3CH2OH(g) -167.9
O2(g) 0.0
HC2H3O2(g) -374.2
H2O(g) -228.6

Reduction half equation : CH₃CH₂OH(g) + H₂O(l) → HC₂H₃O₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻
Oxidation half equation : 4H⁺(aq) + O₂ + 4e⁻ → 2H₂O(l)

Overall equation : CH₃CH₂OH(g) + O₂(g) → HC₂H₃O₂(g) + H₂O(g)

ΔG° = - n F ΔE°
[(-374.2) + (-228.8) + (-167.9)] × 1000 = - 4 × 96500 × ΔE°
- 4 × 96500 × ΔE° = -434900
ΔE° = +434900 / (4 × 96500) V
ΔE° = +1.13 V
