Consider a galvanic cell: \(\text{Zn}| \text{Zn}^{2+} (0.010\ \text{M}) || \text{Cu}^{2+} (0.10\ \text{M}) | \text{Cu}\). Standard electrode potentials are \(E^\circ_{\text{Zn}^{2+}/\text{Zn}} = -0.76\ \text{V}\) and \(E^\circ_{\text{Cu}^{2+}/\text{Cu}} = +0.34\ \text{V}\). (a) Calculate the cell EMF at \(25^\circ\text{C}\) using the Nernst equation. (b) If a current of \(0.500\ \text{A}\) is passed for \(30\ \text{min}\), how many grams of copper are deposited on the copper electrode? (c) Assuming the zinc ion concentration remains unchanged and the copper ion concentration decreases accordingly, determine the new EMF of the cell.
