A galvanic cell is made up of a copper electrode in a 1.0 M copper (II) sulfate solution, a silver electrode in a 1.0 M silver nitrate solution, and a salt bridge connecting them at 25 degrees celsius.
a) Draw a diagram labeling two electrodes as anode or cathode and copper or silver. Label it with solution of Copper (II) sulfate or silver nitrate and show the flow direction of the electrons through a wire.
b) Write the spontaneous reaction for the Galvanic cell.
c) Calculate the potential for the Galvanic cell.
d) 6.0 M ammonia is added to the Copper (II) sulfate solution until the Cu 2+ ion is essentially all converted to the tetraamminecopper (II) complex ion. At this point, the potential of the cell goes up to 0.92 V. Find the residual concentration of Cu 2+ ion in the cell. Please show all work. Thank you!
