Chemistry

Consider the following liquid junction cell at roomtemperature:

Zn(s) / ZnSO4(aq) // CuSO4(aq) / Cu(s)

The left side of the cell contains an electrolyte solution at9.26*10^-2 M and the right side of the cell contains an electrolytesolution at 7.32*10^-2 M.

Calculate the observed cell potential using the Nernst Equation,the Debye-Huckel Limiting Law, and ionic activities.
