Consider preparing an electrolytic cell with solid Cu & 0.40 M Cu(NO3)2 solution in one half cell and solid Ag & 0.60 M AgNO3 solution in the other half cell.
(a) Use standard reduction potentials to determine the Eo for the spontaneous reaction.
(b) What is the reducing agent in this reaction?
(c) Write the cell notation for this cell.
(d) What is the cell potential for this cell once it reaches equilibrium?
(e) What are the concentrations of Cu2+ and Ag+ at equilibrium?
