To calculate the e.m.f. (electromotive force) of the cell for the given redox reaction: **Step 1: Identify the half-reactions.** - At the anode, magnesium (Mg) is oxidized to magnesium ions (Mg²⁺): \[ \text{Mg(s)} \rightarrow \text{Mg}^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \] - At the cathode, silver ions (Ag⁺) are reduced to silver (Ag): ...
