Question
**Cell Notation:**

X(s) | X¹⁺ (8.07 M) || MnO₄⁻ (0.15 M) | Mn²⁺ (2.69 M) | OH⁻ (8.98 M)

---

**Details:**

- The reduction potential for X¹⁺ is 0.81 V.

**Problem Statement:**

What is the potential of this non-standard cell (in Volts)?

---

**Explanation of Notation:**

The cell notation represents an electrochemical cell:
- **X(s) | X¹⁺ (8.07 M)**: The anode half-cell with solid X and its ion X¹⁺ at 8.07 M.
- **MnO₄⁻ (0.15 M) | Mn²⁺ (2.69 M) | OH⁻ (8.98 M)**: The cathode half-cell with MnO₄⁻ at 0.15 M, Mn²⁺ at 2.69 M, and OH⁻ at 8.98 M.
- The double vertical lines "||" indicate a salt bridge or a porous barrier separating the two half-cells.

# Non-Standard Cells and the Nernst Equation

### Reactions and Standard Electrode Potentials

1. \( \text{MnO}_4^- + 4 \, \text{H}^+ + 3 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{MnO}_2 + 2 \, \text{H}_2\text{O} \) \((E^0 = 1.70 \, \text{V})\)

2. \( \text{MnO}_4^- + 8 \, \text{H}^+ + 5 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Mn}^{2+} + 4 \, \text{H}_2\text{O} \) \((E^0 = 1.51 \, \text{V})\)

3. \( \text{MnO}_4^- + 4 \, \text{H}_2\text{O} + 5 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Mn}^{2+} + 8 \, \text{OH}^- \) \((E^0 = 0.90 \, \text{V})\)

4. \( \text{MnO}_4^- + 2 \, \text{H}_2\text{O} + 3 \, \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{MnO}_2 + 4 \, \text{OH}^- \) \((E^0 = 0.60 \, \text{V})\)

### Nernst Equation

\[ E_{\text{cell}} = E^0_{\text{cell}} - \left( \frac{0.0592 \, \text{V}}{n} \right) \log Q \]

This equation is used to calculate the potential of a cell under non-standard conditions, where \( E_{\text{cell}} \) is the cell potential, \( E^0_{\text{cell}} \) is the standard cell potential, \( n \) is the number of moles of electrons transferred in the reaction, and \( Q \) is the reaction quotient.

### Alternative Representations

- OR \( \text{MnO}_4^{1-} + 4 \, \text{H}^+ +
