Consider two reactions

 XY,  ΔG°=-386kJmol

M2+M4++2e-,E°=-pV

It is given that all the energy released from the conversion of X to Y is used in the oxidation of M2+ to M4+. Under standard conditions, on conversion of 1 mole of X, 4 moles of M2+ are oxidised. The value of 100p is (use F=96500Cmol-1 )
