A student wishes to determine the chloride ion concentration in a water sample at 25 °C using a galvanic cell constructed with a graphite electrode and a half-cell of AgCl(s) + e → Ag(s) + Cl(aq) Eºred = 0.2223 V And a copper electrode with 0.500 M Cu²+ as the second half cell Cu²+ (aq) + 2 e → Cu(s) Eºred= 0.337 V The measured cell potential when the water sample was placed into the silver side of the cell was 0.0595 V.
