Tollen’s reagent is used for the detection of aldehyde, when a solution of AgNO3 is added to glucose with NH4OH then gluconic acid is formed.

Ag++eAg; Ered=0.8V

C6H12O6+H2OC6H12O7 (Gluconic acid) +2H++2e;Eoxd=0.05V

Ag(NH3)+2+eAg(S)+2NH3;E=0.337V

[Use 2.303×RTF=0.0592 and FRT=38.92 at 298 K]

(i) 2Ag++C6H12O6+H2O2Ag(s)+C6H12O7+2H+. Find ln K of this reaction.
