Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 83GQ
Two Ag+(aq) | Ag(s) half-cells are constructed. The first has [Ag+] = 1.0 M, the second has [Ag+] = 1.0 × 10−5 M. When linked together with a salt bridge and external circuit, a cell potential is observed. (This kind of voltaic cell is referred to as a concentration cell.)
- (a) Draw a picture of this cell, labeling all components. Indicate the cathode and the anode, and indicate in which direction electrons flow in the external circuit.
- (b) Calculate the cell potential at 298 K.
