A student wants to determine the maximum voltage and power output of a primary cell that consists of a zinc electrode in 1M Zn(NO3)2 solution and a silver electrode in 1M AgNO3 solution. The student knows the standard reduction potentials of Zn2+/Zn and Ag+/Ag to be -0.76V and +0.80V, respectively. Assuming the cell operates under standard conditions at 298K, what is the maximum voltage that the cell can generate and the maximum power output it can deliver?

A student wants to find out the cell potential of a voltaic cell made up of a nickel electrode and an iron electrode. The nickel electrode is in a 0.1 M nickel (II) sulfate solution, and the iron electrode is in a 0.1 M iron (II) sulfate solution. What is the cell potential of this voltaic cell at standard conditions (25°C and 1 atm of pressure) given the standard reduction potentials for Ni2+/Ni and Fe2+/Fe are -0.25 V and -0.44 V, respectively?

Calculate the power output for a Zinc-Copper electrochemical cell operating at standard conditions with a Zinc electrode that measures 10 cm by 12 cm and a Copper electrode that measures 8 cm by 10 cm. The current flowing through the circuit is 0.5 A. The standard reduction potentials for the half-reactions are +0.76 V for Cu2+/Cu and -0.76 V for Zn2+/Zn.

A student is given a concentration of 0.1 M of CuSO4 and 0.2 M of AgNO3, and is asked to calculate the total resistance of an electrochemical cell with electrodes made of these two solutions separated by a salt bridge. The standard reduction potentials for Cu and Ag are +0.34 V and +0.80 V, respectively. Calculate the total resistance of the cell at 25°C assuming that the cell has a thickness of 1 cm and a cross-sectional area of 10 cm².
