Problem
At 298 K a galvanic cell employs the half-reactions below.
Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag(s) E° = +0.80 V
Fe³⁺ + e⁻ → Fe²⁺ E° = +0.77 V
With [Fe³⁺] = 0.010 M and [Fe²⁺] = 0.10 M, the cell potential is measured to be 0.10 V. What is the concentration of Ag⁺ in the Ag⁺/Ag half-cell?
(a) 6.6×10−3M
(b) 1.5M
(c) 15M
(d) 0.15M
