Problem

The equilibrium constant for a redox reaction at 298 K is K=3.8×10−18K = 3.8 \times 10^{-18}. If a cell based on this reaction is assembled under standard conditions, indicate whether it will function as a galvanic cell or require an external power source to operate, and briefly justify your choice.
