b. Calculate the net potential of the cell (the voltage), assuming standard conditions. Solution Standard state means there is need to check the cell potential at concentrations of 1 mol/L & the pressure of 1 atm at 25°C. For the calculation of the cell potential at standard state is carried out in the following state: First step is to generate the oxidation & reduction half-reactions for the cell then comparision of this reduction potential is conducted with the reduction half-reaction in the standard table the same is followed for the reverse of the oxidation half-reaction only the sign is changed to obtain the oxidation potential. Finally these potentials are added to get the whole standard cell potential. E o cell = E o reduction + E o oxidation furthermore this potential varies from reaction to reaction. .

1. b. Calculate the net potential of the cell (the voltage), assuming standard conditions.
Solution
Standard state means there is need to check the cell potential at concentrations of 1 mol/L &
the pressure of 1 atm at 25°C.
For the calculation of the cell potential at standard state is carried out in the following state:
First step is to generate the oxidation & reduction half-reactions for the cell then comparision of
this reduction potential is conducted with the reduction half-reaction in the standard table the
same is followed for the reverse of the oxidation half-reaction only the sign is changed to obtain
the oxidation potential.
Finally these potentials are added to get the whole standard cell potential.
E o
cell = E o
reduction + E o
oxidation
furthermore this potential varies from reaction to reaction.
