Consider the following cell:

Pt|H2(g, 0.130 atm)|H (aq, ? M)||Ag (aq, 1.00 M)|Ag(s)

If the measured cell potential is 0.90 V at 25 °C and the standard reduction potential of the Ag /Ag half-reaction couple is 0.80 V, calculate the hydrogen ion concentration in the anode compartment.

1 answer

Ecell = Eocell - (0.0592/n)log Q
Q = (H^+)^2(Ag)^2/pH2*(Ag^+)^2
