Chemistry

a) Calculate the potential in the following cell (no current isflowing)

Zn|Zn2+(1.00M)|| UO2 2+(1.00M),U4+ (0.1M), H3O + (1.00M) |Pt

b) The cathode has a volume of 50 mL. What is the cell potential(no current) after adding 10 mL, 25 mL, 50 mL, and 100 mL 1M NaOHto the cathode?

c) What is the Gibbs Free Energy for the 5 cells in a) and b).What is the spontaneous reaction in each case?
