QUESTION

1 [2 points) You have constiucted a 1 M quinhydronetquinone concentration cell with buffers of pH = 4.3 and pH = 2,2 senor-ding to u: following...

− 7.79:, , *log ([&)] ' [&)]')= − 7.79:, , *log ([&)] ' [&)]')= Which can be simplified using properties of logs: <=>>=− 7.79:, , *log ([&)] ' [&)]')= − 7.79:, , [(2log([H+])-(2log([H+])]

Pulling out a -2 we end up with a simplified equation in terms of the pH in each half reaction

<=>>= ?7.79:,(?) , [-log([H+])-(-log([H+])]= +0.0592*(pH-pH) =0.0592*DpH = +0.0592*DpH

Using the new Nernst equation as derived here, calculate the cell potential for this electrochemical cell.
