Problem

The standard reduction potential of the Ag+/Ag\text{Ag}^+/\text{Ag} electrode at 298K298\text{K} is 0.799V0.799\text{V}. Given that for AgI\text{AgI}, Ksp=8.7×10−17K_{\text{sp}} = 8.7 \times 10^{-17}, evaluate the potential of the Ag+/Ag\text{Ag}^+/\text{Ag} electrode in a saturated solution of AgI\text{AgI}. Also calculate the standard reduction potential of the I−/AgI/Ag\text{I}^-/\text{AgI}/\text{Ag} electrode.
