Top answer:
Ecell = Eocell + (0.0592/#e)log(Pb^2+)/(Pb^2+) Ecell = 0.1776 Eocell= I don't have my text handy but I think this is -0.126. You should verify that. #e ...

if it does not work feel free to tell me here or on

This is a concentration cell.
Pb ==> Pb^2+ + 2e.......................Eox = ?
Pb^2+ + 2e ==> Pb...................... Ered = - 0.126
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Pb + Pb^2+ ==> Pb^2+ + Pb........ Ecell = 0.1776
Eox + Ered = Ecell
Eox + (-0.126) = 0.1776 which I will round to 0.178
Eox = 0.304 and written as a reduction it is -0.304
-0.304 = Eocell -(0.0592/2)*log (Pb)/(Pb^2+)
-0.304 = - 0.126 - (0.0592/2)*log (1)/(Pb^2+).
Solve for (Pb^2+) in moles/L.
