Ag+ + e- Ag(s) E° = 0.80 V
Cu2+ + 2e- Cu(s) E° = 0.34 V
In a galvanic cell, the silver compartment contains a silver electrode and excess AgCl(s) (Ksp = 1.6 * 10-10). The copper compartment contains a copper electrode, and [Cu2+] = 2.0 M.
A) Calculate the potential for this cell at 25°C.
B) Assuming 1.0 L of 2.0 M Cu2+ in the copper compartment, calculate how many moles of NH3 would have to be added to establish the cell potential at 0.52 V at 25°C (assume no volume change on addition of NH3).
Cu2+ + 4NH3
Cu(NH3)42+ Kf = 1.0 * 1013
