D.Based on the table of standard reduction potentials (see document on Canvas), calculate E°cell.
E.As the reaction progresses, 4.52g of the lithium electrode corrodes and 21.3 g of zinc is deposited on your zinc electrode. Assuming both solutions in your cell are 1 L and 298 K, what would be the cell potential (Ecell) at this point?
F.Based on Question E, how much time is necessary to run a 12.5A current through your Li+solution to reduce it ALL to lithium metal
