A galvanic cell at 25 °C is constructed as follows: Zn(s) | Zn²⁺ (0.010 M) || Cu²⁺ (0.50 M) | Cu(s). Standard reduction potentials are E°(Zn²⁺/Zn) = -0.76 V and E°(Cu²⁺/Cu) = +0.34 V. (a) Calculate the cell potential E_cell under the given conditions. (b) Determine the equilibrium constant K for the overall cell reaction.

Answer Options

A. E_cell = 1.20 V; K ≈ 2.1 × 10³⁹
B. E_cell = 1.05 V; K ≈ 5.0 × 10³⁰
Correct Answer C. E_cell = 1.15 V; K ≈ 1.7 × 10³⁷
D. E_cell = 0.95 V; K ≈ 3.2 × 10²⁸
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
E_cell = 1.15 V; K ≈ 1.7 × 10³⁷
