Question

Write the full Nernst Equation (i.e. not just at 298K) and define each term:

Answer 1

Answer :

The Nernst equation :

$E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{2.303RT}{nF}\log \frac{[Anode]}{[Cathode]}$

where,

$E^0$ = standard cell potential

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

R= gas constant = 8.314 J/Kmol

T = temperature

[Anode] = anodic ion concentration

[Cathode] = cathodic ion concentration
