Step 1: The Nernst Equation

The Nernst equation is given by: Where:

• is the standard electrode potential,
• is the number of electrons involved in the reaction,
• The concentrations of products and reactants are represented in molarity.

Step 2: Substituting the Given Values

We are given:

• ,
• ,
• ,
• (liquid, so it is 1 M),
• ,
• .

Substituting these values into the Nernst equation:

Step 3: Simplifying the Logarithmic Term

Simplifying the expression inside the logarithm:

Step 4: Substituting the Result into the Nernst Equation

Now substitute back into the Nernst equation: Since , we get:

Step 5: Calculate the Final Value of

Performing the multiplication: So:
