What do scientists call an orderly pattern of change over time

The standard reduction potentials for the Ag+|Ag(s) and Zn2+| Zn(s) half-cell reactions are +0.799 V and -0.762 V, respectively.

Answer: The potential of the given cell is 1.551 V

Explanation:

The given chemical cell follows:

$Zn(s)|Zn^{2+}(0.125M)||Ag^{+}(0.240M)|Ag(s)$

Oxidation half reaction: $Zn(s)\rightarrow Zn^{2+}(0.125M)+2e^-;E^o_{Zn^{2+}/Zn}=-0.762V$

Reduction half reaction: $Ag^{+}(0.240M)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o_{Ag^{+}/Ag}=0.799V$ ( × 2)

Net cell reaction: $Zn(s)+2Ag^{+}(0.240M)\rightarrow Zn^{2+}(0.125M)+2Ag(s)$

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.762)=1.561V$

To calculate the EMF of the cell, we use the Nernst equation, which is:

$E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.059}{n}\log \frac{[Zn^{2+}]}{[Ag^{+}]^2}$

where,

$E_{cell}$ = electrode potential of the cell = ? V

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard electrode potential of the cell = +1.561 V

n = number of electrons exchanged = 2

$[Zn^{2+}]=0.125M$

$[Ag^{+}]=0.240M$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E_{cell}=1.561-\frac{0.059}{2}\times \log(\frac{(0.125)}{(0.240)^2})$

$E_{cell}=1.551V$

Hence, the potential of the given cell is 1.551 V
