To calculate the standard EMF (electromotive force) of the cell reaction given by: \[ \text{Zn} + 2\text{Ag}^+ \rightarrow \text{Zn}^{2+} + 2\text{Ag} \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the oxidation and reduction half-reactions - In this reaction, zinc (Zn) is oxidized to zinc ions (\( \text{Zn}^{2+} \)), and silver ions (\( \text{Ag}^+ \)) are reduced to silver (Ag). ...
