One sign of a chemical reaction is that gas is being created.
Answer: 0.18 V
Explanation:-

Here Cd undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. nickel undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.
=-0.40V[/tex]
=-0.24V[/tex]

Here Cd undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. nickel undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

Where both
are standard reduction potentials.
![E^0=E^0_{[Ni^{2+}/Ni]}- E^0_{[Cd^{2+}/Cd]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5E0%3DE%5E0_%7B%5BNi%5E%7B2%2B%7D%2FNi%5D%7D-%20E%5E0_%7B%5BCd%5E%7B2%2B%7D%2FCd%5D%7D)

Using Nernst equation :
![E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Cd^{2+}]}{[Ni^{2+]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bcell%7D%3DE%5Eo_%7Bcell%7D-%5Cfrac%7B0.0592%7D%7Bn%7D%5Clog%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BCd%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BNi%5E%7B2%2B%5D%7D)
where,
n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2
= standard electrode potential = 0.16 V
![E_{cell}=0.16-\frac{0.0592}{2}\log \frac{[0.10]}{[0.5]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bcell%7D%3D0.16-%5Cfrac%7B0.0592%7D%7B2%7D%5Clog%20%5Cfrac%7B%5B0.10%5D%7D%7B%5B0.5%5D%7D)

Thus the potential of the following electrochemical cell is 0.18 V.
