The potential of the concentration cell is 0.1182 V when the reaction is spontaneous.
<h3>What is Concentration Cell?</h3>An electrolytic cell that contains two half cells with the same electrodes but with different concentrations is known as a concentration cell.
<h3>What is Nernst Equation?</h3>Nernst Equation helps in determining the cell potential under the non-standard conditions that are at any known temperature, pressure, and concentration. It is given by
At T = 298 K,
For Ni concentration cell, anode and cathode are the same and thus E° is zero
At anode,
At Cathode,
No of moles of electrons, n = 2
Then, the potential of the cell is given by
diluted Ni = 1 x 10⁻⁴ M and concentrated Ni = 1 M
log(10) = 1
E = 0.1182 V
Hence, the potential of the cell is 0.1182 V.
