Caculate the emf of the cell in which the following reaction takes place :

Ni(s) + 2Ag+ (0.002 M) ----- Ni2+ (0.160 M) + 2Ag(s)

Given that E0 (cell) = 1.05 V.

Solution:

Given that

[Ag+] = 0.002 M

[Ni+2] =0.160 M

n = 2

Apply the Nernst equation:

Substituting the values, we get

  • 1

emf of the cell =0.9V

  • 0

I don't want answer only. I want explaination.

  • 0
