20. Due to COVID-19 coupled with erratic power supply from ZESCO, you decide to play around with galvanic cells and you construct a zinc-copper battery operating at a zero resistant small light emitting diode (L.E.D) at 250C as follows: Zn | Zn (0.10 M) Cu (2.5 M) | Cu The mass of each solid electrode is 2.00 g. Which of the two is a reducing agent? Calculate the cell potential when this battery is first connected. Calculate the cell potential after 10.0 A of current has flowed for 10.0 hours. (Assume cach half-cell contains 1.00 L of solution.) a) b) c)
