For a concentration cell:

Zn/Zn2+ (0.05M)//Zn2+(1M)/Zn

E= 0.035 volt

a. What can you say about the measured emf of this cell and theconcentration cell of Cu/Cu2+ (0.05M)//Cu2+(1M)/Cu ?

b. Why is the standard emf (E) not a factor in these twocells?

c. Use the Nernst equation to calculate the emf of thiscell.
