Consider a concentration cell that has both electrodes made of some metal M. Solution A in one compartment of the cell contains 1.0 M M2+. Solution B in the other cell compartment has a volume of 1.00 L. At the beginning of the experiment 0.0100 mole of M(NO3)2 and 0.0100 mole of Na2SO4 are dissolved in solution B (ignore volume changes), where the reaction M2+(aq)+SO42(aq)MSO4(s) occurs. For this reaction equilibrium is rapidly established, whereupon the cell potential is found to be 0.44 V at 25C. Assume that the process M2++2eM has a standard reduction potential of 0.31 V and that no other redox process occurs in the cell. Calculate the value of Ksp for MSO4(s) at 25C.

The mass of three different metal electrodes, each from a different galvanic cell, were determined before and after the current generated by the oxidation-reduction reaction in each cell was allowed to flow for a few minutes. The first metal electrode, given the label A, was found to have increased in mass; the second metal electrode, given the label B, did not change in mass; and the third metal electrode, given the label C, was found to have lost mass. Make an educated guess as to which electrodes were active and which were inert electrodes, and which were anode(s) and which were the cathode(s).
