Two galvanic cells with two different chemical reactions are given. The value of E ° for both the cells is to be calculated. Concept introduction The galvanic cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy while the electrolytic cell converts electrical energy into chemical energy. The species at anode undergoes oxidation while the species at cathode undergoes reduction and the electrons generated at the anode are transferred through wire to the cathode.

Suppose the rate of evaporation in a hot, dry region is 1.76 meters per year, and the seawater there has a salinity of 35 ‰. Assuming a 93% yield, how much salt (NaCl) can be harvested each year from 1 km2 of solar evaporation ponds that use this seawater as a source?
