An electrochemical cell is made of two electrodes: (Zn2+/Zn) and (Ag+/Ag). Use the standard reduction potentials to answer the following questions. What is the standard potential of the cell and which electrode is the cathode and which one is the anode? Write a net redox equation for this electrochemical cell.
Thomas Edison invented an electric meter that was nothing more than a simple coulometer, a device to measure the amount of electricity passing through a circuit. In this meter, a small, fixed fraction of the total current supplied to a household was passed through an electrolytic cell, plating out zinc at the cathode. Each month the cathode could then be removed and weighed to determine the amount of electricity used. If 0.25% of a household’s electricity passed through such a coulometer and the cathodeincreased in mass by 1.83 g in a month, how many coulombs of electricity were used during that month?
