The driving force DeltaG diminishes to zero on the way to equilibrium, just as in any other spontaneous process. Both DeltaG and the corresponding cell potential (E = (DeltaG)/(nF)) zero when the redox reaction comes to equilibrium. The Nernst equation for the redox process of the cell may be given as : E= E^(@) -(0.059)/( n) log Q The key to the relationship is the standard cell potential E^(@) , derived from the standard free energy change as : E^(@)=-(DeltaG^(@))/(nF) . At equilibrium, the Nernst equation is given as : E^(@) = -(0.059)/(n) log K At equilibrium , when K = 1 the correct relation is
