### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Gibbs Free Energy (ΔG)**: - Gibbs free energy (ΔG) is a thermodynamic potential that measures the maximum reversible work obtainable from a thermodynamic system at constant temperature and pressure. In the context of electrochemistry, it indicates the spontaneity of a reaction. 2. **Understanding EMF (Electromotive Force)**: - The electromotive force (E_cell) of a galvanic cell is the voltage produced by the cell when no current is flowing. It represents the potential difference between the two electrodes. ...
