A volume of $$100\ ml$$ of a buffer of $$1 M \ NH_{3}$$ and $$ 1M \ NH_{4}^{+}$$ is placed in two half-cells connected by a salt bridge. A current of $$1.5\ A$$ is passed through the cell for $$20$$ minutes. If only the electrolysis of water takes place and the electrode reactions are;
Right Electrode: $$ 2H_{2}O +O_{2}+4e \rightarrow 4 OH^{-}$$
Left Electrode: $$ 2H_{2}O \rightarrow 4H^{+}+O_{2}+4e,$$

For a cell reaction
2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l)
ΔS°298 = –0.32 kJ/K
What is the value of ΔfH°(298) (H2O, l)?
[Given: standard electrode potential of the following half cell reaction is 1.23 V, O2(g) + 4H+ + 4e– → 2H2O(l)]
