An electrochemical cell is constructed with a zinc metal anode in contact with a 0.052 M solution of zinc nitrate and a silver cathode in contact with a 0.0042 M solution of silver(I) nitrate. What is the value of Q to use in the Nernst equation for this cell

Q = 12.38

Explanation:

The Nernst equation is given as; Ecell = E°cell - (2.303RT/nF) log Q  ;where Q is the reaction quotient.

The reaction quotient, Q  in a reaction, is the product of the concentrations of the products divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants.

In an electrochemical cell, Q is the ratio of the concentration of the electrolyte at the anode to that of the electrolyte at the cathode.

Q = [anode]/[cathode]

therefore , Q = 0.052/0.0042 = 12.38

answer: the figure is attached herewith.

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to sketch a unit circle and label the terminal points corresponding to

in the attached figure, we have drawn a unit circle, with centre at o(0,0) and radius 1 unit. we have labelled the points a, b, c, d and e corresponding to the angles below

∠aox = 60°,

∠box = 120°,

∠cox = 180°,

∠dox = 240°,

∠eox = 300°.

and the coordinates are a(0.5,1), b(-0.5,1), c(-1,0), d(-0.5,-1) and e(0.5,-1).

thus, the answer is complete.
