A voltaic cell consists of a Au+(aq)|Au(s) electrode (Eº = +1.83 V) and a Cs+(aq)|Cs(s) electrode (Eº = −3.03 V). If Ecell = 4.62 V and the temperature is 28.2 ℃, what is the ratio [Cs+(aq)] ∕ [Au+(aq)] equal to? R = 8.314472 J/mol⋅K and Faraday's Constant = 96485 C/mol. Report your answer to TWO significant figures. Enter your answer in the appropriate boxes and remember a number such as 1.23 is 1.23 × 100 in scientific notation. Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.
