Question

The balanced equation for a voltaic cell is as follows:
2NO3-(aq)+8H3O+(aq)+3Ca(s) -> 2NO (g) + 3Ca2 (aq) + 12 H2O (l)

In one half-cell (containing a graphite electrode) the following conditions apply:
[NO3] = 0.200 M; PNO = 0.100 atm; pH = 2.000

This is combined with a standard Ca2+ǀCa half-cell.

Under these conditions, the cell potential was measured to be 3.678 V at 250 'C.
By calculating the value of the reaction quotient and Ecell 0 under these conditions, determinethe value of the standard potential for the Ca2+ ǀ Ca half-cell.
