Chapter 18, Problem 78E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: For the given voltaic cell consisting of Pb/Pb²⁺ half-cell and a Cu/Cu²⁺ half-cell at 25 °C:

the initial cell potential is to be calculated.

the cell potential when the concentration of Cu²⁺ has fallen to 0.200 M is to be calculated.

the concentrations of Pb²⁺ and Cu²⁺ when the cell potential falls to 0.35 V are to be calculated.
