The standard electrode potentials $E^o_{(I_2/I^{-})}$,$E^o_{(Br^{-}/Br_2)}$,and $E^o_{(Fe/Fe^{2+})}$ are respectively $+0.54 \ V$,$-1.09 \ V$,and $0.44 \ V$. On the basis of the above data,which of the following processes is non-spontaneous?

If the molar conductivity $(\Lambda_{m})$ of a $0.050 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ solution of a monobasic weak acid is $90 \ S \ cm^{2} \ mol^{-1}$,its extent (degree) of dissociation will be. [Assume $\Lambda_{+}^{\circ} = 349.6 \ S \ cm^{2} \ mol^{-1}$ and $\Lambda_{-}^{\circ} = 50.4 \ S \ cm^{2} \ mol^{-1}$.]

Plotting $1 / \Lambda_{m}$ against $c \Lambda_{m}$ for aqueous solutions of a monobasic weak acid $(HX)$ resulted in a straight line with $y$-axis intercept of $P$ and slope of $S$. The ratio $P / S$ is
$[\Lambda_{m} =$ molar conductivity
$\Lambda_{m}^{\circ} =$ limiting molar conductivity
$c =$ molar concentration
