Answer :

The Nernst equation :


E_(cell)=E^o_(cell)-(2.303RT)/(nF)\log ([Anode])/([Cathode])

where,


E^0 = standard cell potential

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

R= gas constant = 8.314 J/Kmol

T = temperature

[Anode] = anodic ion concentration

[Cathode] = cathodic ion concentration
