Zn(s) / ZnSO4(aq) // CuSO4(aq) / Cu(s) The left side of the cell contains an electrolyte solution at 9.26*10^-2 M and the right side of the cell contains an electrolyte solution at 7.32*10^-2
M. (a.) Calculate the observed cell potential (Ecell) using the Nernst Equation and concentration.
(b.) Calculate the observed cell potential using the Nernst Equation, the Debye-Huckel Limiting Law, and ionic activities.
(c.) Briefly describe the observed differences between the two calculations. Comment if these differences are significant and if that seems logical based on the conditions of the liquid junction cell.
