Electrochemistry · Nernst equation cell EMF

One half cell in a voltaic cell is constructed by dipping silver rod in AgNOX3\ce{AgNO3} solution of unknown concentration, other half cell is Zn rod dipped in 1 molar solution of ZnSOX4\ce{ZnSO4}.

A voltage of 1.60 V is measured at 298 K for this cell. What is the concentration of AgX+\ce{Ag+} ions used in terms of log⁡x\log x (x=[AgX+]x = [\ce{Ag+}]) ?

EZn2+/Zn⊖=−0.76E^\ominus_{\mathrm{Zn^{2+}/Zn}} = -0.76 V, EAg+/Ag⊖=+0.80E^\ominus_{\mathrm{Ag^{+}/Ag}} = +0.80 V,

2.303RTF=0.059\dfrac{2.303RT}{F} = 0.059 V

  1. (1)23.9\dfrac{2}{3.9}
  2. (2)45.9\dfrac{4}{5.9}
  3. (3)2.92\dfrac{2.9}{2}
  4. (4)5.94\dfrac{5.9}{4}
