Daniel Cell Zn + Cu2+ Zn2+ + Cu We used 1.0 M Zn2+ and 1.0 M Cu2+ as electrolyte solutions. These are standard conditions (Eo) For the standard Daniel Cell, Eocell = 1.10 V If we did not use 1.0 M, non standard conditions, E
2
Relate E to Eo using Q Nernst Equation E = Eo – (0.0592/n) log Q
Recall, Q = P/R As reaction proceeds, ↑P, which ↑Q (>1) As ↑Q, ↓E. As E → 0, the cell dies (voltage ↓) If Q < 1 (R > P), Ecell > E0cell If we used 1.0 M Zn2+ and 2.0 M Cu2+, E > 1.10 V So Ecell depends on half reactions and [R] vs. [P]

Pg 906 #73 (brown and lemay) A voltaic cell employs the following redox reaction Sn2+ + Mn → Sn + Mn2+ Calc the cell potential at 25oC under Standard conditions [Sn2+] = M; [Mn2+] = 2.00 M Eo Sn/Sn2+ = V Eo Mn/Mn2+ = V
4
Concentration Cells The half reactions are the same (same material in both beakers) That means there is no reduction potential driving the e-, Eocell = 0 V To drive the current, use concentration gradient Cell operates by transferring e- from less conc side to more conc side until the [Mn+] on both sides is equal. Once they are equal, the cell is dead
5
Pg 906 #80 Consider the conc cell cell. Label the anode and cathode.
Indicate the direction of e- flow. Indicate what happens the [Pb2+] in each half
6
Pg 906 #81 A conc cell consists of two Sn/Sn2+ half cells. The cell has E = 0.10 V at 25oC. What is the ratio of the Sn2+ conc in each half cell?
