Problem

At 37.0∘C37.0^\circ\text{C}, a cell based on the reaction Cd(s)+2 Ag+(aq)→Cd2+(aq)+2 Ag(s)Cd(\text{s}) + 2\,Ag^{+}(\text{aq}) \rightarrow Cd^{2+}(\text{aq}) + 2\,Ag(\text{s}) produces an emf of 1.05 V1.05\,\text{V} when [Cd2+]=0.0100 M[Cd^{2+}] = 0.0100\,\text{M}. The standard potential for the cell is 1.18 V1.18\,\text{V}. Calculate the concentration of Ag+Ag^{+} ions under these conditions. Express your answer in mol L−1\text{mol}\,\text{L}^{-1} to three significant figures.
