Part F: Calculating Cell Potentials using the Nernst Equation

                                                                                            10 points

Nernst Equation:

 E = Eo – RT/nF [ln Q]        or         E = Eo - 2.303RT/nF [log Q]

 

Or E = Eo – 0.0592 V/n [log Q]      in volts at 25oC

 

R = 8.31451 J / K∙mol  F = Faraday Constant = 9.6485309 x 104 J/V∙mol
